Warning Messages

A warning message alerts you to a possible problem and prompts you to

respond before the system continues a task. Warning messages usually

interrupt the task and require you to respond by typing y (yes) or n (no).

NOTE:

Warning messages are generated by either the application or the

operating system. For more information, see the documentation that

accompanied the application or operating system.

Diagnostics Messages

The system diagnostic utilities may issue messages if you run diagnostic tests

on your system. See "Running the Embedded System Diagnostics" on

page 148 for more information about system diagnostics.

Alert Messages
