Using USB diskette or USB DVD or CD drives

The sled has USB ports on the front which allows you to connect a USB diskette drive, USB flash drive,

To designate the USB diskette drive as the boot drive:
1. connect the USB drive
2. restart the system

selecting a boot device for the current boot sequence.
