8. Repeats Step4 through Step 7 for all download script files listed in the boot con-
figuration file
9. Copies any modules identified in the boot configuration files with the
sra_module
parameter to the hard disk.
10. Copies the system boot file from the boot server to the hard disk:
• Freeway 1100/1150/1200/1300: freeway/boot/fw486
• Freeway 2000/4000/8800 with an MVME 162 CPU: freeway/boot/fw162
• Freeway 2000/4000/8800 with an MVME 2600 CPU: freeway/boot/ fw2604
Step 6: Modify Boot Parameters to Boot from Hard Disk
The
Boot Device, System Boot Directory, and Secondary Network Interface boot parameters
differ depending on whether you are booting from a boot server or from a hard disk.
Because you modified the boot parameters to enable Freeway to boot from the boot
server in Step3, you must now modify them to enable Freeway to boot from the hard
disk.
Section 4.5.1 on page 148 describes how to modify the boot parameters. Any changes
made to these parameters are stored in Freeway’s non-volatile memory. Tab le 4–1 on
page 150 describes each parameter.
Figure 4–42 shows the System Boot Parameters screen modified for booting from the
hard disk.
Step 7: Boot Freeway from the Hard Disk
To boot Freeway, select “Shutdown Options” at the Freeway Interactive Menu, then
select “Reboot Server.” Rebooting is described in Section 4.3.1 on page 122. When the
boot process is successful, the login prompt appears.
