Using Boot Manager
54 IP100 Series Installation Guide
Booting the System
The
boot
command lets you boot up the operating system (IPSO). The
boot
command allows you to set the boot device, boot file, and boot
flags from the command line.
The command has the following form:
boot
boot-device boot-file boot-flags
where boot-device is the storage device from which the operating system
loads at boot up, and boot-file is the operating system kernel. The boot-
flags control the operation of the command.
For example, at the boot manager command prompt enter:
BOOTMGR[0]> boot wd0 /image/current/mykernel
-vd
This command boots
mykernel
from disk
wd0
in verbose and debug
mode.
You can supply all, any, or none of the arguments. If you do not supply an
argument, the boot manager uses its default, as shown in Table C-2.
Boot Manager first searches its non-volatile memory to see if the
corresponding default argument is specified there. If so, it uses that value;
if not, it uses these defaults.
