摘要: Disclosed is a computer system which can be powered on by at least first and second method wherein the different from method. The operative to allow user select one of two pre-selected ordered lists initial program load (IPL) devices are used depending whether was or includes processor coupled local bus an input/output (IO) bus. A non-volatile memory IO has basic input output (BIOS) stored therein BIOS effective for responding energization initiating power self test (POST). also stores list IPL devices. POST determine If used, will attempt boot if
