Displaying and Setting the Fastboot Mode

Displaying and Setting the Fastboot Mode
When fastboot is enabled (set to on), your workstation does a quick check
of the memory and skips I/O interface testing during its power-on self tests.
This enables your workstation to complete its boot process quicker. The
default factory setting is for fastboot to be enabled (on).
The fastboot mode allows your workstation to boot quickly by performing a
less extensive check of the system's memory.
When fastboot is disabled (set to off), more extensive memory testing and
I/O interface testing is performed during the self tests, causing the boot pro-
cess to take longer.
If you are experiencing difficulty in booting your workstation, set fastboot
to off and reboot the system. The more extensive testing may reveal the error
condition.
