Supported Boot Configurations
~v1odeI340
Workstation SPU's can boot operating systems via HP-IB. Media formats from which
a system may be booted are:
• L.I.F.
• UNIX (Boot Area) (Note that this is different from HP-UX. See Chapter 5, the HP-UX
Prog;rammer's Guide, for details.)
The Boot RONI can boot systems from the following boot devices:
• AMIGO protocol HPIB Discs (e.g. 8290XM, 9895, L-Codes and 7906/20/25)
• CS/80 protocol HP-IB discs (e.g. 7908)
• SS/80 protocol HP-IB discs (e.g. 9122)
• CS /80 Tape.
Note
Some of these devices, namely the HP 7906/20/25, may not meet EMI
requirements when used with Series 300 computers, but their support
in the drivers conles inexpensively with other discs that are supported.
