Common Options : IDE, SCSI

Details

This function is only valid if the Boot Sequence function has EXT settings and this function has to cooperate with the Boot Sequence function. This function allows you to set whether the system boots from an IDE hard disk that's connected to any of the extra two IDE ports found on some motherboards (i.e. ABIT BE6 and BP6) or a SCSI hard disk.

To boot from an IDE hard disk that's connected to the 3rd or 4th IDE port, courtesy of the extra onboard IDE controller), you'll first have to set the Boot Sequence function to start with EXT first. For example, the EXT, C, A setting. Then, you will have to set this function, Boot Sequence EXT Means to IDE.

In order to boot from a SCSI hard disk, set the Boot Sequence function to start with EXT first. For example, the EXT, C, A setting. Then, you have to set this function, Boot Sequence EXT Means to SCSI.
