Setup Autoboot; Display Hardware Configuration - HPE AlphaServer 300 User Manual

Initially, select Add a boot selection. You are then prompted to select:
•
A system partition for this boot selection (The partition defined by the Set default
environment variables command should be one of your choices.)
•
The osloader directory and name
•
Whether or not the operating system is in the same partition as the osloader
•
The operating system root directory
•
A 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.

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 will also be
prompted to enter a countdown value. (The default is 10 seconds.) The ARC console will
wait for the duration of the countdown value before booting the system.
