4.2. Booting from hard drive
Booting from hard drive is not really more difficult that
booting from CD. The only thing really important is that
your hard drive has to be correctly prepared. Take a look
at Section 3.3.3 to learn how to
prepare it.
Start the box and enter the BOOT_ADMIN mode.
(Section 2.1.1)
There are two options from there: either you know the
full PATH to your hard disk device,
then you can jump to next step, or you don't.
In this last case, issue a search ipl
to list all available bootable devices.
You can also specify
search [PATH].
For instance if you want to search the Single Ended SCSI bus:
Take a look at help search
for details specific to your box.
Once you know the full PATH to your hard drive,
you can issue a boot <PATH>.
That's all. If everything goes fine, it will start booting the kernel
as setup by PALO (see Section 3.3.3).
