Boot To Command Mode - Symbol Series 6800 Product Reference Manual

Cold-Boot Failure
During a cold boot, the system briefly displays a status line for each driver as it loads in the
format:
0: Driver
The line shows a status value, usually 0, followed by the name and version number of the
driver. If the system halts at one of these lines and displays a status value other than 0, the
displayed device driver failed to load properly.
If such a failure occurs, try cold booting the terminal again. If this does not solve the problem,
call the Symbol Support Center.
More troubleshooting information is provided in the publications listed in Related
Documentation at the beginning of this manual.
