Loading Your System from 243x/8x Integrated Disks
Before loading your diskbased system into memory from disk, do the following:
SEnsure that the boot extension (BOOTEX) is physically stored beginning at cylinder zero of the disk drive from which the system is to be loaded. Refer to the INSTL program in the RTEA User's Manual, part number 9207790002, and Chapter 9 of this manual for details on installation of the boot extension (BOOTEX).
SBe sure the boot command file, the memory image system file, and the snap file are stored on the same LU that contains BOOTEX.
SObtain the address, unit number, head number, and the select code of the 248x integrated disk controller from which your system will be loaded.
Now enter the following from the VCP:
1.Press the BREAK key to pass control to the VCP program if not already in VCP mode.
2.Enter %bdibuscfile[,SS]

%bdi Execute the disk bootstrap loader program for the 248x Integrated disk. The loader will load the boot extension (BOOTEX) into low memory. BOOTEX will set up the swap area, the memory allocation table, and relink and RP program files specified in the command file. BOOTEX will then copy part of itself to the top of physical memory and will load the system file. When loading is complete, the system starts execution immediately if the suspend parameter SS is omitted.
