Hi.
I'm running an AMD cpu on an Asrock K7-880 upgrade mobo. I want to prevent users from pressing F11 at start-up thereby being offered a selection of devices from which to boot i.e. they could press F11 and opt to boot from the floppy, CD, or slave hdd (which has Ubuntu on it). I don't want to disable the devices altogether, which I could do but that would prevent the user being able to use them at all.
All help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Look in the bios. You should be able to set the bios to boot only to the Pri HDD then put a password on the bios so no one can change it.

Unfortunately, there are only options for setting device priority, but nothing to only permit the primary hdd. Any idea where to go from here?
Thanks again.
