Figure 17-6 "Boot Options" field
Quick Boot Mode Some hardware tests are skipped to speed up the boot sequence.
SETUP prompt During the system load phase, the message
Press <F2> to enter Setup or <Esc> to show boot menu
is output on the bottom of the screen.
POST errors The boot sequence is stopped if an error is detected; you must press F1 to
acknowledge. Enter "Disabled" to avoid the necessity of acknowledging errors,
for example, if no keyboard is connected.
Floppy check The floppy head is stepped inward and then back to its original position during
the system boot phase. This test is useful because it reinitializes the drive.
Summary screen The most important system parameters are displayed when the system boot
phase completes.
'Enabled' means that the feature is active. 'Disabled' means that the feature is inactive.
