Freeway 3112 Hardware Installation Guide Chapter 4. Configuring the Boot Parameters Using an Init Diskette
so it is only necessary to specify the parameters which you wish to change. However, it is usually best to specify
them all so that all the boot parameters will always be set correctly, since any boot parameters which are not set
explicitly by the boot parameter diskette will be in an unknown state (whatever they were set to before).
1. The boot parameter initialization diskette is a DOS-formatted bootable floppy diskette, with an
AUTOEXEC.BAT file which includes this line:
copy a:bootparm.txt c:bootparm.txt
The boot parameter initialization diskette must also contain a file of the name
bootparm.txt
, which contains
lines of the form shown in Figure 4-1 .
To configure the boot parameter initialization diskette, insert it into any PC. The
bootparm.txt
file, shown in
Figure 4-1 , can be viewed with any text editor. Edit this file to configure the boot parameters, as described in
Table 4-1 . Be sure to select the appropriate option to save this file as text if this is not the default format of your
editor.
A missing line, or a line with a blank field after the colon, will result in the value of that specific boot parameter
remaining unchanged. Any line with a single period (".") character after the colon will result in that boot
parameter being cleared (set to the empty string). Any other string to the right of the colon will be used as the
new value for that boot parameter. Any line which has a "#" as the first non-whitespace character will be taken as
a comment line, and will have no effect on any boot parameters.
