Resetting The Workstation; Searching For Bootable Media - HP Visualize J5000 - Workstation Service Handbook

Searching for Bootable Media

To list all devices that may contain bootable media, follow the directions in "Acces-
sing the Boot Console Interface" earlier in this chapter, and then type the following at
the prompt:
Main Menu: Enter a command or a menu >
The search may turn up more devices than there are lines on your display. If you are
using a text terminal, you may control the progress of the search from your terminal's
keyboard by performing the following steps:
To hold the display temporarily, press
To continue the display, press
To halt the search, press any key
These flow-control commands do not work with a bitmapped display, but such a
display can show more than forty lines of text, so you are unlikely to need them.
To search for devices of just one type that actually contain bootable media, follow the
directions in "Accessing the Boot Console Interface" earlier in this chapter, and then
type the following at the prompt:
Main Menu: Enter a command or a menu >
Enter
where device_type is one of the following:
fwscsi is the built-in fast, wide SCSI bus
scsi is the built-in single-ended SCSI bus
lan is all connections to the built-in LAN
