Booting From the Network
To use a Sun Quad FastEthernet PCI adapter ethernet interface as the boot device,
perform the following tasks:
1. At the
ok
prompt type:
ok show-devs
The
show-devs
command lists the system devices. You should see the full path
name of the
qfe
devices, similar to the example below:
/pci@1f,2000/pci@2/SUNW,qfe@0,1
/pci@1f,2000/pci@2/SUNW,qfe@1,1
/pci@1f,2000/pci@2/SUNW,qfe@2,1
/pci@1f,2000/pci@2/SUNW,qfe@3,1
Note -
You need to select only one of these
qfe
devices for booting.
2. At the
ok
prompt type:
ok boot
(full path name of the
qfe
