| Description | This special priority level is applicable only when the file is
an image. Setting this priority level on the image file identifies
the order in which the system will choose a new image to load when
it finds the active image to be corrupted. For example, if the
system is loading and find that the designated active image is
corrupted, the system will first look for the next image with the
smallest priority number (priority number 1 is highest priority and
priority 255 is the lowest priority) to try to attempt to load next.
It will continue in this way until it finds a valid image to load.
Note that you can even set the priority level of an image that is
currently marked as the active image. This is because if later you
change the active image to another image file, then this file
configured priority will applies.
If there is no priority set on any image file, then the system will
boot from a randomly selected file if it finds that the current
active image is corrupted. |
