Console Commands
•
Operating system root directory.
•
Name (identifier) for this boot selection.
•
Whether or not the debugger should be initialized at boot time.
After you have added a boot selection, use the Check boot selections command to perform
verification testing of the selections. If an error is detected, you are prompted to ignore,
delete, or change the boot selection.
Machine Specific Setup
You reach the Machine specific setup menu from the Setup menu. Use this menu to
control PCI parity checking, which is by default set to on, and SCSI termination of the
external portion of the SCSI bus, which is by default set to internal.
Boot "boot selection identifier"
The Boot command is the first selection in the Boot menu. Use this command to boot
Windows NT using the default boot selection identifier (which is specified in the Boot
selection menu).
Boot an Alternate Operating System
The Boot an alternate operating system command is located in the Boot menu. Use this
command to select a boot selection identifier that is different from the default selection.
For example, you can have multiple versions of Microsoft Windows NT Workstation
installed, each with its own unique boot selection identifier, and use this command to
select the version that you want to boot.
Other Commands of Interest
Setup Autoboot
The Setup autoboot command is located in the Setup menu. Use this command to enable
automatic booting of the system. When you enable autoboot, you are also prompted to
enter a countdown value (10 seconds is the default). The ARC console waits for the
duration of the countdown value before booting the system.
Install New Firmware
The Install new firmware command is located in the Supplementary menu. Use this
command to install firmware upgrades. When selected, the floppy drive and CD-ROM
(compact disc read only memory) are checked for the firmware update tool. If the proper
media is not present, this command times out. Follow the instructions packaged with the
firmware update.
