The system will then boot on output 1&3 of the graphics card that is closest to the SBC, irrespective of the
settings of the identification links on the graphics cards. In this context “closest to the SBC” is defined in
terms of the PCI bus enumeration, so if a VSN1100X is attached to the host, the system will boot on the
first VGA card to be discovered in the VSN1100X (counting from the slot closest to the SLink-G3 slot), and
failing that the first graphics card in the host machine.
When the BIOS is set to PEG/PCI as above you are free to install the graphics cards in any PCIe slot,
including the first (x8 lane) slot.
