Booting from Media (All Series)
Older Server Boot
Process
For Models 8x7, 845, 835, 870, and other older Series 800 computers, you
will see a boot display like the following:
Figure 2-6
================================================================
Console path = 56.0.0.0.0.0.0 (dec)
38.0.0.0.0.0.0 (hex)
Primary boot path = 52.2.0.0.0.0.0 (dec)
34.00000002.0.0.0.0.0 (hex)
Alternate boot path = 52.0.0.0.0.0.0 (dec)
34.0.0.0.0.0.0 (hex)
64 MB of memory configured and tested.
Autoboot from primary path enabled.
To override, press any key within 10 seconds.
Boot from primary boot path (Y or N)?> n
Boot from alternate boot path (Y or N)?>
Enter boot path, command, or ?>
================================================================
1. Turn on the system.
2. Press any key to stop the autoboot process, at the message to do so.
3. Insert the install CD-ROM.
4. Determine the hardware path of the install device from your system
administrator. (There is no search capability to determine this
information on older Series 800 models).
• If the primary path shown on your screen is not the same as that
for the install device, respond with "n" to the prompt "Boot from
primary boot path". In this case, you will then be asked if you
want to boot from the alternate path, which is typically set to an
external CD-ROM device.
• If the primary path shown on your screen matches that for the
install device, respond with "y".
