GEVINIT - Global Environment Variable Initialization
Command Input
GEVINIT
Description
The GEVINIT command permits the user to initialize the NVRAM
Header (i.e., the PRP partition) information.
Initialization of the NVRAM PRP partition is available from the
command line (i.e., on demand), or at any time when the system's
firmware initializes itself (i.e., buginit()).
The auto initializing of the NVRAM (PRP partition) header, is
controlled by an ENV configuration parameter. The default state of
this parameter is set to enabled. The following is the ENV
parameter syntax:
Auto-Initialize of NVRAM Header Enable [Y/N], defaults to 'Y'
If you answer Y, it will initialize the header; if you answer N, it
wonÕt.
