Only 24 Devices Are Displayed In The System BIOS Boot List

Bug 15648283

Issue: If you install multiple HBA cards in an x86 system, the total number of devices populated across all cards can be no more than 24. Additional devices will not be displayed in the system BIOS boot list.

Workaround: Use the BIOS Configuration Utility to select which adapters are candidates for booting and which drives connected to those adapters you want designated as boot drives. This enables you to gaurantee which drives are consistently listed in the system BIOS boot list.
