Setting Up and Using Your Linux Workstation
Configuring Your Workstation
Chapter 1 23
Advanced Menu
The Advanced Menu offers a list of sub-menus allowing you to:
• Configure memory caching, USB ports, Integrated I/O Ports and
Integrated Audio Devices
• Enable floppy disk drives, IDE devices (Primary and Secondary)
• Workstation Devices.
Security Menu
Sub-menus are presented for changing the characteristics and values of
the System Administrator Password, User Password, Power-on
Password, Fixed Disk Boot Sector and for preventing unauthorized
start-up from the Floppy, CD-ROM and IDE-HDD drives (refer to
“Setting Up Hardware Passwords in the HP Setup Program” on page 18).
Boot Menu
Select the order of the devices from which you want the BIOS to attempt
to boot the operating system. The QuickBoot mode option allows the
system to skip certain tests while booting. This decreases the time
needed to boot the system.
Power Menu
The Network Interface option enables the system to return to normal
speed when a specific command is received by the network interface.
Setup changes system behavior by modifying the power-on initialization
parameters. Setting incorrect values may cause system boot failure.
Should this occur, press F9 to load the Setup default values to recover.
