Boot Console Handler Boot Console Handler Features Boot Console Handler Features There are times when you want to interact directly with the hardware of the B2000 workstation before it boots the operating system. The B2000 workstation provides a menu-driven Boot Console Handler that allows you to perform special tasks, display information, and set certain system parameters, even if the operating system is unavailable. Here are some of the things you can do: • Boot the system • Search for bootable media • Reset the system • Display and set boot paths • Display and set the monitor type • Display memory configuration information • Display the status of the PCI slots • Set Auto Boot, Auto Search, and Auto Start • Set Fastboot • Display LAN information • Display system information The Boot Console Handler menus follow, showing the various tasks you can perform and the available information. The shortened version of each command is indicated by the uppercase letters. Help is available for all the menus and commands by using either help, he, or ? and the menu or command for which you want help. Chapter 6 137
