The storage device to which the image is linked; for example, /dev/ram1
or /dev/sda2.
RAM devices should not be confused with hard disk devices which use a par-
tition table. On a Point of Service terminal, partition sda1 is used for the
Linux swap partition and sda2 defines the root file system (/). On the RAM
disk device, /dev/ram0 is used for the initial RAM disk and cannot be used
as storage device for the system image. It is recommended that you use /dev/
ram1 for the RAM disk.
The name of the image to load on the Point of Service terminal.
The version of the image to load on the Point of Service terminal.
The server IP address for the TFTP download.
This variable must always be included in the IMAGE= parameter.
The block size for the TFTP download. If the block size is too small according
to the maximum number of data packages (32768), linuxrc automatically cal-
culates a new block size for the download. The maximum block size is 65464
Bytes.
This variable must always be included in the IMAGE= parameter.
Specifies a compressed image boot. If the compressed variable is not included,
the standard boot process is used.
The boot fails if you specify compressed and the image is not compressed.
It also fails if you do not specify compressed and the image is compressed.
