92 | Installing the Board and Driver in a Sun PCI Workstation
Changing the Console
The console appears, by default, on the first head of the first
board in the system’s probe list. You can change the console
with the
pci-probe-list
environment variable. If you want
to change the console without altering the probe list, change
the
output-device
environment variable instead.
You can use the
setenv
command to change environment
variables.
To use the setenv command
1. Power on or halt the system to get to the ok> prompt.
2. Type
setenv output-device <device node>
.
These examples describe how to change the console in
Ultra™ 10 and Ultra 30 systems. For more details, refer to
your Sun documentation.
3. To make the Md5/DFP board the console in an Ultra 10
system, type:
setenv output-device /pci/DOME/Md5DFP
For an Ultra 30 system, which has two PCI buses, type:
setenv output-device /pci@X/DOME,Md5DFP
where
X
is the location of the board.
For example, if the board is installed at location
1f,4000
,
type:
setenv output-device /pci@1f,4000/DOME,Md5DFP
4. Reboot the system.
The device node portion of the
setenv
command differs for
different Sun systems and board locations.
