Installing HP-UX
Booting from a Network (Workstation/Series 700, B, C J Only)
• If necessary, type the following command again:
search lan
Note that it will typically take two or three searches before the
install server will be found, due to a built-in delayed response from
the install server.
• Identify your LAN server from the listing.
• If three attempts result in no response from the desired server, see
Chapter 4, “Troubleshooting Your Installation.”
3. If you know the Ethernet™ address of your server and can specify
where to boot without going through the search process, type:
boot lan.080009-nnnnnn
where 080009-nnnnnn is the Ethernet address of the install server.
This number can be found by running the lanscan(1M) command on
the server.
• If your server is listed during the search, then you can boot the
system by typing "p" and the index number of the server. For
example:
p1
This will cause the boot to begin. OR
• Alternatively, you can exit this screen by typing "x Enter", and typing
"boot p1" at the previous screen.

On newer Workstations, after the power is turned on, you will see a
graphical interface screen that displays instructions to press ESC to stop
the boot process.
1. Press ESC, and you should see the following menu:
