+.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
+as described in
+.Xr fsck 8 .
+and unless this fails, the system will resume multi-user operations.
+.Pp
+.Sy Cold starts
+The SPARC system currently uses the SunOS bootstrap loaders.
+This will be changed in a future version of the system.
+The SunOS boot will attempt to load
+.Pa vmunix
+from partition A of the boot device,
+which must currently be an ``sd'' disk.
+.Pp
+The
+.Op Fl s
+flag to the SunOS boot loader will being the system up in single-user mode.
+The
+.Op Fl d
+flag to the SunOS boot loader will bring the system up in debug mode.
+Here it waits for a kernel debugger connect; see
+.Xr kgdb 8 .
