The Boot Console Interface
Searching for Bootable Media
Searching for Bootable Media
To list devices that contain bootable media, follow the directions in “Access-
ing the Boot Console Interface” earlier in this chapter, and then type the fol-
lowing at the prompt:
Main Menu: Enter command >
search ipl
The search command searches all buses. The search may turn up more
devices than there are lines on your display. If you are using a text terminal,
you may control the progress of the search from your terminal’s keyboard by
using the following commands:
•
To hold the display temporarily, press Ctrl S
•
To continue the display, press Ctrl Q
•
To halt the search, press any other key
These flow-control commands do not work with a bitmapped display, but
such a display can show more than forty lines of text, so you are unlikely to
need them.
To search for devices of just one type that actually contain bootable media,
follow the directions in “Accessing the Boot Console Interface” earlier in
this chapter, and then type the following at the prompt:
Main Menu: Enter command >
search ipl device_type
Where device_type is one of the following:
sescsi is the built-in single-ended SCSI bus
lan is all connections to the built-in LAN
pcin is an optional PCI card in slot n
pmcn is an optional PMC card in site n
