The second row of the front panel is composed of switches that allow |
|
|
|
you to control a few aspects of the system startup. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The first two switches affect the device used as the console initially. |
|

|
Setting the CRT/Serial switch will cause the system to boot directly |
|
|
|
to an attached CRT device (if available). Setting the Pri/Sec switch |
|
|
|
will cause the system to boot to the secondary Serial or CRT device |
|
|
|
(depending on the setting of the first switch). |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The final six switches allow you to cause the system to automatically |
|
|
|
boot into a desired function. The Auto/Menu switch must be set to |
|
|
|
enable this, otherwise the normal ROM Loader prompt will be used. |
|
|
|
If the Disk/ROM switch is not set, then you can use the last 3 |
|
|
|
switches to select a ROM app to auto-start. If the Disk/ROM switch is |
|
|
|
set, then the system will attempt a disk boot based on the following |
|
|
|
switches. The Floppy/Hard switch can be used to boot to a Floppy or |
|
|
|
Hard Disk. In either case, the first Floppy or Hard Disk will be used |
|
|
|
for the boot. If a Hard Disk boot is selected, then the last three |
|
|
|
switches can be used to select any of the first 8 slices. |
|
|
|
you to control a few aspects of the system startup. The switches are |
|
|
|
also re-read during warm boot, so confirm the switch settings are your |
|
|
|
desired boot configuration before executing 'REBOOT /W'. |
