Set Up The Next Boot Option; Install A Fresh Image On 4400 Appliances - McAfee DTP-1650-MGRA - Network DLP Manager 1650 Appliance Installation Manual

Set up the next boot option

After you install an image, the system automatically assigns the next boot to the image that was
installed. In rare instances, you might want to override that assignment by configuring the next boot
to a different disk.
Using this command has the same effect as changing the boot option using the GRub menu.
