Booting From LAN
hpux supports booting over a local area network for the purpose of installing the HP-UX operating sys-
tem using Ignite-UX. See ignite(5) for details on configuring an Ignite-UX server and client system instal-
lation.
This example shows how to boot a system from an Ignite-UX server to perform a cold-install of HP-UX.
After turning the system on or pressing the Reset button, press a key to interrupt the autoboot process (if
autoboot is enabled) and at the BCH prompt, enter:
Main Menu: Enter command or menu >
boot lan.n.n.n.n install
where: n.n.n.n is the IP address of the Ignite-UX server. The client then begins to load the install
kernel (ignite the client) from the network server.
To search for Ignite-UX servers, type the following ath the client console:
Main Menu: Enter command or menu >
search lan install
The list of servers that you can boot the client from is displayed with the corresponding IP addresses and
is similar to:
Search for potential boot devices(s)... on Path LAN
This may take several minutes.
To discontinue search, press any key (termination may not be
immediate).
Path Number Device Path Device Type
----------- ----------- -----------
P0 LAN.15.1.46.117.3.254 lp2 100/Full Dx
P1 LAN.15.1.41.70.3.254 lp4 100/Full Dx
You may need to run the nslookup command on another system to determine which address
corresponds to your Ignite-UX server. To boot from one of the above servers, you would then type:
Main Menu: Enter command or menu >
boot P1
Booting to isl from a local disk and then requesting an image to be loaded from the LAN is not sup-
ported.
Booting To Single User Mode
In this example, the
-i option is used to make the system come up in run-level s
, for single user mode of
operation.

Booting With A Modified I/O Configuration
Here a new console and dump device with a lunpath hardware path (see intro(7)) of
0/5/1/0.0x50001fe15002c7f9.0x4004000000000000
are configured. Lunpath hardware paths cannot be directly used with the "-a" option. Instead, the output
given by "ioscan -e" (ioscan(1m)) must be used.
