|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.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
|
|
On a Artesyn PMPPC card, the boot procedure uses the boot monitor to load
|
|
a kernel over the network using BOOTP and TFTP.
|
|
The filesystems are mounted via NFS, as described in
|
|
.Xr diskless 8 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Sy Boot monitor settings
|
|
There are a few of settings in the boot monitor that must
|
|
be adjusted to boot a kernel.
|
|
The settings are modified with the
|
|
.Ic nvdisplay
|
|
command, followed by a
|
|
.Ic nvupdate
|
|
to save the new settings.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The monitor settings should point to a TFTP server which has the binary
|
|
kernel image,
|
|
.Pa netbsd.bin ,
|
|
which is built when a kernel is compiled.
|
|
Furthermore, the monitor should be set up to not initilize PCI devices.
