The message looks something like the following for a virtual disk assignment:
Current Boot Device set to volume at handle 79
NOTE:
Since this is not a user-selected Preferred Boot Device, it is not marked as
Boot under Device Information in <Ctrl><C>.
If this device goes missing, the next device in the next available slot is
selected as the Boot Device. Configured virtual disks are chosen as a boot
device over unconfigured physical disks.
In summary, it is recommended to make a Preferred Boot Device selection in
order to ensure that the desired boot device is always the device that the
system boots to. All systems shipped from Dell have a Preferred Boot Device
configured by default.
