Figure 2-1. Verifying Directed Netboot Configuration
If getcfg displays the correct information, continue to Step 4. Otherwise, correct and reenter the ifconfig and bconfig commands. If you need assistance, contact your network administrator.
4.Type the following command and press the Return key to boot the ARN: boot
Note: If the ARN cannot find a software image file or a configuration file using the directed netboot procedure, it attempts to netboot once. If the netboot procedure fails, the ARN tries to local boot once. If all three boot attempts fail, the ARN continues to try directed netboot, netboot, and local boot until it boots successfully. If the ARN remains in this loop, follow the steps in “Interrupting the Boot Process” on page
5.Ensure that the ARN boots correctly.
When the ARN boots, its LEDs flash in a particular order. To ensure that the installation was successful, see “Ensuring a Successful Installation” on “Ensuring a Successful Installation” on page
