3798.0. "Celebris GL 5166st" by VARDAF::BERBIGIER (No known policy forbids common sense) Fri Mar 21 1997 10:24

I searched without success in the setup of the Celebris GL5166st how to either
disable the boot from the diskette or to change the boot order (C: then A:)

Should a boot sector virus infect a NTFS disk or a FAT32 disk it becomes a
nighmare to clean !!!! (even a virus which is considered as harmless in a DOS
environment)

Does anyone have a solution ?

    Hi Pierre,
    
    The only docs I have are the Celebris GL 5xxx service manual that is on
    our web site.  (http://pcbu.ako.dec.com/)
    
    In there, it says that in CMOS setup, you can configure Boot Options
    --> Boot Sequence to be any of the following:
    
    - A: only
    - A: then C:
    - C: then A:
    - C: only
    
    Looks like that should cover it.
    
    Hope this helps,
    
    /Bill
