Variables

IP100 Series Installation Guide
A number of variables are stored by the boot manager in non-volatile
memory. You can set and view most variables from the boot manager
prompt.
The variables are:
boot manager revision: This is the version number of the boot manager.
This variable cannot be set from the command line.
autoboot: If autoboot is set to no, the NAP stops at the boot manager
command line during the boot process.
If autoboot is set to yes, the NAP does not stop at the boot manager
command line during a boot up. It does wait for the amount of time
specified in bootwait for input from the keyboard. If input is received,
the boot manager goes to the command line; otherwise, it proceeds with
the boot up.
Default: yes.
bootwait: This is the amount of time, in seconds, the boot manager waits
for input during a boot up when autoboot is set to yes.
Default: five seconds.
boot-file: This is the name of the file to be used as the operating system
kernel.
Default: /image/current/kernel.
boot-flags: This is the string of flags that is passed to the kernel.
Default: none.
boot-device: This is the device from which the boot-file loads.
Default: wd0.
Options: wd0 (hard disk).
Default: The alias disk is set to wd0.
