Chapter 4. Using the IBM 2212 Bootstrap Menus
The IBM 2212 bootstrap tests the IBM 2212 system card and hard file/compact
flash components. The IBM 2212 bootstrap menus are used to determine the cause
of any problem detected during the tests, and bring the IBM 2212 back to an
operational state.
Accessing the Bootstrap Menu requires that a console be directly attached to the
service port or that a remote console be running ASCII terminal emulation (the
bootstrap menus do not support SLIP), and the boot process be stopped at a
specific point. To access the Bootstrap Menus:
1. Attach a console to the service port as described in “Attaching an ASCII
Terminal” on page 3-3.
2. Force a reboot by unplugging and plugging the power cord, or by typing reload
at the OPCON (
*
) prompt or reboot at the
SVC>
prompt.
3. The IBM 2212 will begin its boot process. When the message
<<
Press CTRL-C
to access menus>>
is displayed, press Ctrl-C on the terminal keyboard to stop
the boot process. The Bootstrap Menu should appear. If the Bootstrap Menu
does not appear:
a. Make sure your console is connected to the serial port on the IBM 2212.
b. Unplug and plug the power cord again.
Note: Make sure the screen size for your terminal emulation software is set to 80
columns by 24 rows.
