Slot—Number of the slot where the board is installed.
Status—Status of the board, which is Enabled by default.
Comment—Any comments that you enter about the board or its
configuration.
NOTE:
Not every board-driver configuration requires all this information; in fact,
some configurations require other, link-specific parameters that are not shown in
the Configured Boards screen. These parameters are displayed in the Board
Configuration menu, as described in the following steps.
If the board driver has an .LDI file, the parameters you need to configure
for the board are displayed as separate fields in the menu.
If the board driver has no .LDI file, only the Board Name, Board
Parameters, and Comment fields are provided as a means for entering the
parameters manually.

These parameters are appended to the LOAD driver line.
