The Boot Console Interface

Displaying and Setting the Monitor Type

The correct usage for setting the graphics configuration is:

monitor graphics_path type

where valid graphics_path parameters are:

graphics(1) Graphics adapter installed in slot 1

graphics(2) Graphics adapter installed in slot 2 (primary slot)

graphics(3) Graphics adapter installed in slot 3

graphics(4) Graphics adapter installed in slot 4 (secondary slot)

graphics(5) Graphics adapter installed in slot 5

graphics(6) Graphics adapter installed in slot 6

and type is the numerical monitor type. See “Setting the Monitor Type” in a subsequent section for a list of types. For example, an HP VISUALIZE-EG graphics card (A4977A) installed in option slot 2 would be graphics(2). Note that you can have graphics(1) through graphics(6) for your graphics_path; however, there are two preferred I/O slots available for graphics cards in your computer. Those slots are slots 2 and 4. Slot 2 is the primary graphics card slot, and slot 4 is the secondary graphics card slot.
