-On an HP300, the boot procedure uses the boot ROM to load a boot program

-The

-This

-The boot program can be interrupted by typing `^C' (ctrl-C).
-This will force the boot program to interactively prompt for a system to boot.
-If not interrupted, it will boot from the device from which the boot

-The file specifications used for an interactive boot are of the form:

-.Sh NAME

-.Nd
-system bootstrapping procedures
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-.Sy Power fail and crash recovery.
-Normally, the system will reboot itself at power-up or after crashes.
-Provided the auto-restart is enabled on the machine front panel,
-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.
-These are processor-type dependent.
-On an 11/780, there are two floppy files for each disk controller,
-both of which cause boots from unit 0 of the root file system
-of a controller located on mba0 or uba0.
-One gives a single user shell, while the other invokes the multi-user
-automatic reboot.
-Thus these files are
-.Tn HPS
-and
-.Tn HPM
-for the single
-and multi-user boot from
-.Tn MASSBUS
-RP06/RM03/RM05 disks,
-.Tn UPS
-and
-.Tn UPM
-for
-.Tn UNIBUS
-storage module controller and disks
-such as the
-.Tn EMULEX
-SC-21
-and
-.Tn AMPEX
-9300 pair,
-.Tn RAS
-and
-.Tn RAM
-to boot from
-.Tn MSCP
-controllers and disks such as the RA81,
-or
-.Tn HKS
-and
-.Tn HKM
-for RK07 disks.
-There is also a script for booting from the default device,
-which is normally a copy of one of the standard multi-user boot scripts,
-but which may be modified to perform other actions
-or to boot from a different unit.
-The situation on the 8600 is similar, with scripts loaded from the console RL02.
-.Pp
-Giving the command
-.Pp
-.Dl >>>BOOT HPM
-.Pp
-would boot the system from (e.g.) an RP06 and run the automatic consistency
-check as described in
-.Xr fsck 8 .
-(Note that it may
-be necessary to type control-P
-and halt the processor
-to gain the attention of the
-.Tn LSI-11
-before getting the >>> prompt.)
-The command
-.Pp
-.Dl >>>BOOT ANY
-.Pp
-invokes a version of the boot program in a way which allows you to
-specify any system as the system to be booted.
-It reads from the console a device specification (see below) followed
-immediately by a pathname.
-.Pp
-The scripts may be modified for local configuration if necessary.
-The flags are placed in register 11 (as defined in
-.Aq Pa sys/reboot.h ) .
-The boot device is specified in register 10.
-The encoding of this register is also defined in
-.Aq Pa sys/reboot.h .
-The current encoding has a historical basis, and is shown in the following
-table:
-.Pp
-.Bd -unfilled -offset indent -compact
-bits usage
-0-7 boot device type (the device major number)
-8-15 disk partition
-16-19 drive unit
-20-23 controller number
-24-27 adaptor number (UNIBUS or MASSBUS as appropriate)
-.Ed
-.Pp
-The adaptor number corresponds to the normal configuration on the 11/750,
-and to the order in which adaptors are found on the 11/780 and 8600
-(generally the same as the numbers used by
-.Tn UNIX ) .
-.Pp
-On an 11/750, the reset button will boot from the device
-selected by the front panel boot device switch. In systems
-with RK07's, position B normally selects the RK07 for boot.
-This will boot multi-user. To boot from RK07 with boot flags you
-may specify
-.Pp
-.Bd -unfilled -offset indent -compact
-.Li \&>>>B/ Ns Fl n No DMA0
-.Ed
-.Pp
-where, giving a
-.Ar n
-of 1 causes the boot program
-to ask for the name of the system to be bootstrapped,
-giving a
-.Ar n
-of 2 causes the boot program to come up single
-user, and a
-.Ar n
-of 3 causes both of these actions to occur.
-The ``DM'' specifies RK07, the ``A'' represents the adaptor number
-.Pf ( Tn UNIBUS
-or
-.Tn MASSBUS ) ,
-and the ``0'' is the drive unit number.
-Other disk types which may be used are DB
-.Pq Tn MASSBUS ,
-DD (TU58),
-and DU
-.Pf ( Tn UDA-50/RA
-disk).
-A non-zero disk partition can be used by adding (partition times 1000 hex)
-to
-.Ar n .
-.Pp
-The boot procedure on the Micro
-.Tn VAX
-II
-is similar.
-A switch on the back panel sets the power-up action
-to autoboot or to halt.
-When halted, the processor may be booted using the same syntax
-as on the 11/750.
-.Pp
-The 11/750 boot procedure uses the boot roms to load block 0 off of
-the specified device. The /usr/mdec directory contains a number
-of bootstrap programs for the various disks which should be placed
-in a new pack by
-.Xr disklabel 8 .
-Similarly, the Micro
-.Tn VAX
-II boot procedure loads a boot parameter block
-from block 0 of the disk.
-The
-.Xr rdboot
-.Dq bootstrap
-contains the correct parameters for an
-.Tn MSCP
-disk such
-as the RD53.
-.Pp
-On any processor, the
-.Em boot
-program
-finds the corresponding file on the given device
-.Pf ( Pa kernel
-by default), loads that file
-into memory location zero, and starts the program at the entry address
-specified in the program header (after clearing off the high bit
-of the specified entry address).
-.Pp
-The file specifications used with
-.Dq BOOT ANY
-or
-.Dq \&B/3
-are of the form:
-.Pp
-.Dl device(adaptor,controller,unit,minor)
-.Pp
-where
-.Ar device
-is the type of the device to be searched,
-.Ar adaptor
-is the
-.Tn UNIBUS
-or
-.Tn MASSBUS
-number of the adaptor to which the device is attached,
-.Ar controller
-is the unit number of the controller or
-.Tn MASSBUS
-tape formatter on that adaptor,
-.Ar unit
-is the unit number of the disk or transport slave unit of the tape,
-and
-.Ar minor
-is the disk partition or tape file number.
-Leading adaptor or controller numbers default to 0.
-Normal line editing characters can be used when typing the file specification.
-The following list of supported devices may vary from installation to
-installation:
-.Pp
-.Bd -unfilled -offset indent -compact
-hp MASSBUS disk drive
-up UNIBUS storage module drive
-ht TE16,TU45,TU77 on MASSBUS

-rl RL02 on UNIBUS
-tm TM11 emulation tape drives on UNIBUS
-tms TMSCP-compatible tape
-ts TS11 on UNIBUS

-.Ed
-.Pp
-For example,

-of unit 0 of a
-.Tn MASSBUS
-disk, type
-.Ql hp(0,0)kernel
-to the boot prompt;
-.Ql hp(2,0,1,0)kernel
