8.4.3 Create the Boot Configuration File
You may recreate the boot configuration file (from an example file) if you know which
protocols are to be loaded into which ICP boards. The other information you need to
know is where the ICP boards are located in the Freeway box. Each PCI-bus slot on the
Freeway is identified by a PCI bus number (
bus_number) and slot address (slave_address).
The boot configuration file needs this information in order to download the protocol
software to the ICP boards.
Follow the steps below to create a boot configuration file:
