Operating System Boot and Shutdown
Booting HP-UX
Appendix A
178
The
BOOT... INSTALL
commands boot HP-UX from the default HP-UX install server or from
the server specified by
ip-address
.
BOOT path
This command boots the device at the specified
path
. You can specify the
path
in HP-UX
hardware path notation (for example, 0/0/2/0/0.13) or in “path label” format (for example, P0 or
P1) .
If you specify the
path
in “path label” format then
path
refers to a device path reported by the
last
SEARCH
command.
After you issue the
BOOT
command, the BCH interface prompts you to specify whether you want to
stop at the ISL prompt.
To boot the /stand/vmunix HP-UX kernel from the device without stopping at the ISL prompt, enter
n
to automatically proceed past ISL and execute the contents of the AUTO file on the selected
device. (By default the AUTO file is configured to load /stand/vmunix.)
Main Menu: Enter command or menu >

Boot
: disk(0/0/1/0/0.15.0.0.0.0.0;0)/stand/vmunix
To boot an HP-UX kernel other than
/stand/vmunix
, or to boot HP-UX in single-user or
LVM-maintenance mode, stop at the ISL prompt and specify the appropriate arguments to the
hpux
loader.
Step 4.
Exit the console and service processor interfaces if finished using them.
To exit the BCH environment type
^B
(
Control-B
); this exits the nPartition console and returns to
the service processor Main Menu. To exit the service processor, type
X
at the Main Menu.
