2.2.4 Stop the Freeway Auto-Boot
While the Freeway is booting up, it will display several lines of information from the
BSD operating system. At one point, the boot process will reach the actual Freeway
boot. At this point the boot sequence gives you a chance to interrupt the boot process in
order to display or change the boot parameters. You must hit the enter (return) at this
time in order to stop the boot process. When you hit enter at this point, a 3-item menu
will be displayed on the screen. Figure 2–2 shows an example of the screen you will see
before and after you hit enter.
If you fail to hit enter in time to stop the Freeway from booting, or if you are using a
VGA monitor and keyboard as the console, simply allow the Freeway to boot until you
see the “login” prompt. Then login (username:root, password:setup) to get to the Free-
way Main Menu, and go on to the next section (Section 2.2.5).
