8.2 B OOT FROM LOCAL FLASH DEVICE
If there is firmware loaded into the A8 memory and you want to change the booting process
from the FTP server to the local memory, you must change the parameters in the BootROM.
1. From theA8 CLI (connected through console), reboot the A8. Press any key to stop the
reboot when you see the command “Press any key to stop auto-boot…” in the
CLI window. The A8 will go to the BootROM state.
2. Type “c” to change the settings in the BootROM, as shown in “bold” letter:
- boot device : tffs:0
- unit number : 0
- processor number : 0
- host name : host
- file name : /fl/B4.img
- inet on ethernet (e) : <your A8 ip address>
- host inet (h) : <your ftp server ip address>
- gateway inet (g) : <gateway ip address>
- user (u) : <your ftp username>
- ftp password (pw) : <your ftp password>
- flags (f) : 0x0
- other (o) :
- startup script : factory
3. Type “p” to check if the settings are correct, as shown in Figure 32.
4. And then, type “@” to reboot the A8 from the BootROM.
