4.2 Using the Commands
This section describes the Debug Monitor command categories.
• Download and execution commands
The motherboard software basic load command expects to receive Motorola
S-records that are stored in the appropriate memory location. The Ethernet port
provides improved download performance by using the Internet BOOTP
protocol (a UDP-based protocol). This feature allows the motherboard system to
determine its Internet address, the address of a boot server, and the name of a file
to boot. The Debug Monitor also supports loading files from a floppy drive or
the secondary ROM socket.
The execution commands can be used to transfer control to a program in
memory. These commands begin executing a program in memory at the
specified address, or automatically with a download command.
Ctrl/U Erases the current line of command text.
