Table 4-5 SSTK Command Line Options (continued) SSTK Option Description ssstk_mount=filename Specifies the network share or device that hosts the repository: nfs-[hostname|IP]:/directory USB-/dev/devicename ssstk_mount_options=string Passes extra parameters to the mount command. ssstk_script=filename Specifies the name of main launch script. ssstk_action=string Specifies the default response to the toolkit launch script prompt (readhwconfig, bash, capture, deploy, or linux). idebus=xx Reports the VESA/PCI bus speed in MHz to the IDE driver, where xx is between 20 and 66 inclusive. It is used when tuning chipset PIO modes. For a PCI bus, 25 is used for P75 system, 30 is used for P90, P120, P180 systems, and 33 is used for P100, P133, P166 systems. If in doubt, use idebus=33 for PCI. Edit the sample elilo.conf file included in the SSTK software package to match your deployment. Here is an annotated example of a working elilo.conf file: • The prompt forces interactive mode and the timeout waits for 30 seconds. prompttimeout=300 • The first (default) entry boots the server to Linux and opens a console (label=linux). To change the default elilo boot configuration, insert at the top the option default=LABEL. For example, default=nfs-sample. image=linux label=linux initrd=rootfs.gz root=/dev/ram append="rw ramdisk_size=524288 idebus=33" • The following entry boots the main toolkit launch script by getting it from a local partition.

Table 4-5 SSTK Command Line Options
(continued)
Description
SSTK Option
Specifies the network share or device that hosts the repository:
nfs
—[
hostname
|
IP
]:
/
directory
USB—
/dev/
devicename
ssstk_mount=
filename
Passes extra parameters to the
mount
command.
ssstk_mount_options=
string
Specifies the name of main launch script.
ssstk_script=
filename
Specifies the default response to the toolkit launch script prompt (
readhwconfig
,
bash
,
capture
,
deploy
, or
linux
).
ssstk_action=
string
Reports the VESA/PCI bus speed in MHz to the IDE driver, where
xx
is between
20 and 66 inclusive. It is used when tuning chipset PIO modes. For a PCI bus, 25
is used for P75 system, 30 is used for P90, P120, P180 systems, and 33 is used for
P100, P133, P166 systems. If in doubt, use
idebus=33
for PCI.
idebus=
xx
Edit the sample
elilo.conf
file included in the SSTK software package to match your
deployment. Here is an annotated example of a working
elilo.conf
file:
•
The prompt forces interactive mode and the timeout waits for 30 seconds.
prompttimeout=300
•
The first (default) entry boots the server to Linux and opens a console (
label=linux
). To
change the default
elilo
boot configuration, insert at the top the option
default=LABEL
.
For example,
default=nfs-sample
.
image=linux
label=linux
initrd=rootfs.gz
root=/dev/ram
append=
”
rw ramdisk_size=524288 idebus=33
”
•
The following entry boots the main toolkit launch script by getting it from a local partition.
The script then read the hardware configuration and writes it to the repository.
image=linux
label=readhw-linux
initrd=rootfs.gz
root=/dev/ram
append="rw randisk_size=524288 ssstk_init=/bootstrap
ssstk_mount=/dev/sda1
ssstk_scritp=scripts/main_toolkit_launch.sh
ssstk_action=readhwconfig"
•
This entry gets the main script from a repository located on an NFS share.
image=linux
label=
nfs
initrd=rootfs.gz
root=/dev/ram
append="rw ramdisk_size=524288 ssstk_init=/bootstrap
ssstk_mount_type=
nfs
ssstk_mount=
repositoryserver:/nfsshare
ssstk_script=scripts/main_toolkit_launch.sh"
•
The following entry mounts the repository located on a USB storage device and executes
the main script with the directive to configure the hardware and install Linux.
image=linux
label=
usb
initrd=rootfs.gz
root=/dev/ram
append="rw ramdisk_size=524288
