Boot

Processor Dependent Code

Interrupt PDC boot process by keyboard in 10s, to enter Boot Console Handler (BCH):

To show current options and help, and get to main menu: 

display
help
main

Show boot path: 

path

Boot from primary or alternative paths: 

boot PRI
boot ALT

Search for boot devices:

Search for IPL devices: 

search ipl

Boot from one of the paths above with Path Number: 

boot P1

Set primary boot path to SCSI ID 6: 

path pri P2

Enter configuration menu:

Show/change monitor configuration: 

monitor list

Show/change time configuration:

Enter information menu: 

information

Enter service menu: 

service

Initial System Loader

Once a boot command is sucessful, the ISL is read from disk, and can be interacted with if chosen. Run Offline Diagnostics Environment (ODE): 

ode

Or the HP-UX Secondary System Loader which starts the HP-UX kernel (vmunix): 

hpux

possibly with flags for single user, maintenance, or a custom kernel: 

hpux –is
hpux –lm
hpux (;0)/stand/vmunix.prev

When booting off CD-ROM to install: 

hpux (;0):INSTALL

See help for more.

Installation

  • Choose LVM with VxFS for workstation use

Typical disk partitioning:
