This feature allows you to change the boot sequence for the bootable devices
installed on your computer.
Option Settings

drive. If no operating system is on the drive, the computer attempts to
boot from the next bootable device in the boot sequence.

is in the drive, or if the CD has no operating system, the computer
attempts to boot from the next bootable device in the boot sequence.

If no USB is in the drive the computer attempts to boot from the next
bootable device in the boot sequence.
NOTE: To boot to a USB device, the device must be bootable. To ensure that your
