BOOT (cont)
Booting from Disk
When booting from disk, you include the name of the executable image ( file ), preceded
by the directory path to that file ( dir... ) and the name of the logical disk ( ld ) which
contains the file. Include a colon after the logical disk name (:) and separate each
directory partition with a slash, according the following format:
[ld:][/dir...]file
You can omit the boot device specification and use the file path argument alone when
booting from the default boot device (the system boot path stored in the Change Boot
Parameters menu). The logical disk name and directory path are also optional; the file
path starts from the root (
) by default. The following is sufficient to boot the
executable image in the root directory of the default boot device:

Booting from Tape
When booting from cartridge tape, you can specify the tape file number as the file path
argument. For example, to boot file #1 (the second file) on a cartridge tape in the
drive at SCSI ID #4, the full boot path is
.
Booting over a LAN
When booting as an operating system client to a DG/UX server, for example, you can
specify the Internet address of the operating system server. Use the following format
to specify a LAN boot path argument:
LAN-controller()[Server-Internet-address:]
For example, the following boot path specifies the server at Internet address
on the first integrated Ethernet LAN:
If you don't know your operating system server's Internet address, you can omit the
second-stage argument and use only the LAN controller specification; your
workstation gets the Internet address of the server and other information necessary to
boot over the network.
An operating system server keeps information about each configured client in a boot
parameters file. During the second-stage boot, the server sends the client its boot
parameters. Refer to your operating system and network administration
documentation for information about these boot parameters and for details about the
LAN boot process.
