you can select Auto, User, one of 46 predefined drive specifications or
None.
Auto: This option indicates that the parameters for your hard disk
drive(s) will be automatically detected and displayed when you boot
your system. By default, the LBA mode is selected for a hard disk drive
larger than 528 megabytes. If you decide not to accept the LBA mode,
you can either specify your selection in the " IDE HDD Auto Detection"
menu, or use the User option described below.
User: This type is user definable and allows you to enter the specifica-
tions yourself directly from the keyboard. Six categories of information
are required: Size, Cylinders, Heads, Precomp, LandZone, Sectors and
Mode. This information should be provided by your hard disk vendor or
system manufacturer. However, we recommend you use the " IDE HDD
Auto Detection" which provides a more efficient way to setup your hard
drive.
46 Predefined Drive Specifications: The tables on pages 60 to 62 give
complete listings of the available drive types. Any given hard drive must
be set to one specific drive type number. Please refer to your hard disk
documentation for the appropriate type number.
None: If a hard drive is not installed, select <None> and press <Enter>.
Drive A and Drive B
These options are used to select the type of floppy disk drives installed
in your system. If neither drive is present, select " None" . Make sure you
choose the correct drive type; otherwise, your system might format the
device improperly.
Video
This is used to select the type of video adapter installed in your system.
Halt on
This category controls whether the system will halt in case an error is
detected during power up.
