A bootable CD-ROM may have either a floppy disk for-
mat or a hard drive format. When the bootable CD-
ROM is used, the drive allocations change automatically
without changing the BIOS setup. If a floppy disk for-
mat CD-ROM is used, the CD-ROM becomes Drive A.
The CD-ROM will only take drive C: (hard drive format)
if the internal hard drive is not present or is disabled.
The bootable CD-ROM can never use a C: designation
if a formatted internal hard drive is present since the C:
designator is always reserved for the internal hard
drive.The boot sequence ignores the new drive designa-
tions, however, your application software will use the
new designations.
