Installation Help
If your system has an IDE hard disk, it may be assigned device number 80, which
is the boot device. If your system does not have an IDE hard disk, a parallel SCSI
host bus adapter (HBA), or a RAID adapter, the first bootable FC hard disk
configured (the one with the lowest ID) is assigned device number 80 and becomes
the boot device. The QLA2342/2342L HBA BIOS must be enabled if the boot device
is connected to the QLA2342/2342L HBA.
