Chapter 6 Installing Additional Boards IRQ Settings BIOS automatically assigns the IRQs (hardware interrupts) for each PCI slot and embedded device in the NetServer during boot. These assignments trigger the NOS to enable the APIC (Advanced Programmable Interrupt Controller). APIC takes advantage of the expanded set of non-conflicting IRQs for those accessory boards requiring more than one IRQ per slot. Boot Priority Some accessory boards have preferred slot locations. If not, consider the boot order when choosing the accessory board slot in which to install the board. This is the default boot priority for the LH 6000r and LH 6000: 1. IDE CD-ROM drive with a bootable CD-ROM 2. Flexible disk drive with a bootable flexible disk 3. Embedded SCSI controller or integrated HP NetRAID controller 4. PCI boards in slots in descending order: 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1 You can change this boot order using the Setup utility. Press [F2] during the boot process as described in Chapter 10, "Configuring the HP Server."
