Change Boot Priorty, and live to talk about it?
« on: May 26, 2011, 04:28:00 PM »
Um, so I am wondering if it is possible to change the boot priorities in HDTool Box, save and re-arrange how my computer boots.

Or does it destroy the data on the partition?

No boot priority will not delete the data on the drives.  Its fine to dfo what you propose.

Though you could just use early start-up to select the boot device :)

Yeah that's what I normally do. My tower is setup like this:

1. turn it on, reboot it, it loads up AOS3.9 ( always kludgey )

2. But there is AOS4 on a latter boot partition. ( must go into E.S. to get this to boot up..)

I am going to switch them around, AOS4 1st and then use a script to choose which OS I want to proceed to...

Which will all probably end in tears. :lol:
