Press F5 to remove the device from consideration as a bootable device. NOTE: MS-DOS drive lettering assignments might not apply after a non-MS-DOS operating system has started. Boot devices can be disabled from participating in the boot order process. These order changes are reconciled with the IPL/BCV historical information and stored in the physical ROM part when the F10 Setup changes are confirmed with File/Save Changes and Exit. Shortcut to Temporarily Override Boot Order: To boot one time from a device other than the default device specified in Boot Order, restart the workstation and press F9 when the F9=Boot Menu message appears on the screen. After POST completes, a list of bootable devices is displayed. Use the arrow keys to select the preferred bootable device and press Enter. The workstation then boots from the selected non-default device for this one time. ENWW Computer Setup (F10) Utility 29
