Re: Changing Boot Order

I am running wheezy, and would like to upgrade to jessie.  To
that end I've bought a CD and a USB stick from LinuxCollections.
My problem: when booting I can't get into my bios to change the
boot order.  No matter what key I press, the system continues
on with a re-boot of my old  wheezy.

Details:  my motherboard is a "Military Class Motherboard", which
I believe is also called MSI....

MSI is a motherboard brand. Military Class is a feature class MSI marketing uses. I have one such:

[  Yes, I should have saved the material that came with my machine.
But I have recently moved, quite hurriedly, and I fear that the paper
manuals were lost.  ]

If indeed yours is a MSI motherboard, which is probably fairly obvious early in POST, then pop the cover, find the model number stenciled largely on it, and find a PDF manual on MSI's web site.
