A user is testing a new OS that is contained on a USB drive. The user wants the new OS to load automatically when the computer is turned on. Which of the following should the user configure?
To boot from a USB drive, the user must configure the boot order in the system BIOS/UEFI to prioritize the USB device. This setting tells the computer to load the operating system from the USB device on startup.
From CompTIA A+ 220-1101 Official Study Guide, Objective 3.5 – Configure BIOS/UEFI settings:
“The boot order determines the sequence in which the system firmware attempts to find an OS to boot. Setting USB as the first boot device allows the computer to boot from a USB drive.”
