confirm it, or N to reset the main boot file.
The primary file you selected is SWITCH100.app, are you sure? Yes or No(Y/N):Y
If you type Y, the terminal displays the following information:
On reboot, SWITCH100.app will become the default primary application file to boot!
This means the main boot file has been set successfully.
Set the backup boot file.
You can set the backup boot file in a similar way you set the main boot file. The terminal displays the
following information:
Please input the backup application file number :6
The file you selected is SWITCH200.app, are you sure? Yes or No(Y/N)y
On reboot,SWITCH200.app will become the backup application file to boot!

Auto-booting....................
One of the following cases may occur when the system is rebooting:
The main boot file is correct and the system boots with the main boot file.
An error occurs to the main boot file, so the system boots with the backup boot file.
An error occurs to both the main and backup files, so the system randomly chooses an application
file for booting.
If the system fails to boot with the randomly-chosen application file, it supposes that the file system
is unavailable or no correct boot file is available and thus stops choosing a boot file.
If you do not specify the backup boot file but the main boot file only, the system boots with the main
boot file. If the main boot file has an error, the system randomly chooses an application file for
booting.
If you do not specify the main boot file but the backup boot file only, the system boots with the
backup boot file.
If you specify neither the main boot file nor the backup boot file, the system randomly chooses an
application file for booting.
