Chapter 3: BIOS Configuration

IDE Adapter Sub-Menus

Two IDE adapter sub-menus exist: one for the master drive and one for the slave drive. To

use an EXM-HD, EXM-MX, or EXP-MX series mass storage unit, you must configure a

master adapter; the slave is optional, and not relevant to most RadiSys hardware. To see the

detailed characteristics of the device or to change the device, choose the IDE Adapter 0

Master Sub-Menu to configure the fixed disk. The following screen displays:

Boot Sequence Sub-Menu Displays a menu that you use to change the boot delay and boot

sequence, and disable several displays during the boot process,

such as the SETUP prompt, POST errors, floppy drive check,

and summary screen.

Once you set the boot sequence, your choice displays in the

Main menu. For more information, see Boot Sequence

Sub-Menu on page 17.

Keyboard Features

(Numlock) Sub-Menu

key and key click, and set the keyboard auto-repeat rate and

Menu. For more information, turn to the section concerning the

Keyboard Features sub-menu.

Note: System Memory and Extended Memory are display-only fields set by the BIOS. No user

interaction is required.
