I actually have mine set to look for a DVD first, USB stick second and |
| 30 |
then for my 1st hard drive. Thing is, I know not to have those things |
| 31 |
there when I boot. Of course, I don't boot/reboot very often. When I |
| 32 |
do, it's usually a power failure. I guess because I've never did that, |
| 33 |
except when I need to boot that way, I never thought a person would have |
| 34 |
one plugged in that way. |
| 35 |

Of course, I'm a bit weird. Don't bother arguing with me on that. ROFL |
