.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Tn NetBSD
|
|
kernel is started by placing it at the beginning of physical memory
|
|
and transferring to the entry point.
|
|
Since the system is not reenterable,
|
|
it is necessary to read it in from disk or tape
|
|
each time it is to be bootstrapped.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sy Rebooting a running system .
|
|
When a
|
|
.Tn NetBSD
|
|
kernel is running and a reboot is desired,
|
|
.Xr shutdown 8
|
|
is normally used.
|
|
If there are no users then
|
|
.Nm reboot
|
|
can be used.
|
|
Reboot causes the disks to be synced and allows the system
|
|
to perform other shutdown activities such as resynchronizing
|
|
hardware time-of-day clocks.
|
|
A multi-user reboot (as described below) is then initiated.
|
|
This causes a system to be
|
|
booted and an automatic disk check to be performed. If all this succeeds
|
|
without incident, the system is then brought up for many users.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Options to reboot are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.\" .It Fl d
|
|
.\" option forces a memory dump to the swap area (see
|
|
.\" .Xr crash 8 )
|
|
.\" before rebooting.
|
|
.\" This can be used if the system is in a funny state that you would
|
|
.\" like to ``snapshot'' and analyze later.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
option avoids the sync. It can be used if a disk or the processor
|
|
is on fire.
|
|
.It Fl q
|
|
reboots quickly and ungracefully, without shutting down running
|
|
processes first.
|
|
.\" .It Fl s
|
|
.\" option reboots to single user mode.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm Reboot
|
|
normally logs the reboot using
|
|
.Xr syslog 8
|
|
and places a shutdown record in the login accounting file (see
|
|
.Xr utmp 5 .
|
|
These actions are inhibited if the
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
or
|
|
.Fl q
|
|
options are present.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sy Power fail and crash recovery.
|
|
Normally, the system will reboot itself at power-up or after crashes.
|
|
An automatic consistency check of the file systems will be performed,
|
|
and unless this fails, the system will resume multi-user operations.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sy Cold starts.
|
|
At power up the Sparc rom will attempt to load a
|
|
bootblock and a kernel off the default configured drive. The standard
|
|
.Pa SunOS
|
|
defaults need modification for use by
|
|
.Pa NetBSD.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The Sparc boot rom is a full-featured Forth system with emacs key bindings.
|
|
It has two user-interface modes, these are known as old-mode and new-mode.
|
|
Old-mode shows a simple `>' prompt and is essentially useless (also, the
|
|
kernel does not like it much).
|
|
By default the rom runs in old-mode; to enter new-mode type `n'.
|
|
New-mode shows a Forth-style `ok' prompt.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Old mode should be disabled; utter the following incantation in new-mode
|
|
to force the rom to always start in new-mode.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Pa \ ok
|
|
setenv sunmon-compat? false
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The rom will normally load the kernel from "sd(0,0,0)vmunix". To change the
|
|
default so that
|
|
.Pa NetBSD
|
|
will be loaded type the following
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Pa \ ok
|
|
setenv boot-from sd(0,0,0)netbsd
|
|
.Pp
|
|
At any time you can break back to the rom by pressing the `L1' and `a'
|
|
keys at the same time (if the console is a serial port the same is
|
|
achieved by sending a `break').
|
|
If you do this accidentally you can continue whatever was in progress
|
|
by typing `go'.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
NetBSD/sparc cannot create boot labels. Use SunOS to prep your disk.
