Sun Microsystems 817-3630-11 manual Filename.ini

	TABLE 11-1SunPCi III Command-Line Options (Continued)
Option		Purpose
-l		Displays the system’s installed and recognized SunPCi cards. The switch
		returns the Card Name, for example Card1; the device file name in the
		/dev directory, for example /dev/sunpci2drv0; the card’s Type and
		Description; and the card’s standard MAC address, for example ID =
		08:00:20:F9:5F:2C. See “How to Identify Card Names” on page 25 for
		a complete listing of the output format.
-n		Stops the verification of card and disk image combination, and stops the
		display of the warning dialog box, if you start an image with a card on
		which the image was not created. See “How to Create an .ini File Using
		the -nOption” on page 24 for the full text of the warning. If you wish to
		rebind the image and current card, see the -Boption. Formerly -nomac.
-n	filename.ini	Creates a new filename.ini file and a new disk image name incorporating
		the file name. The command brings up the SunPCi III Disk Create menu
		GUI, with the default disk name already created as
		$HOME/pc/C.filename.diskimage. If the file already exists the sunpci
		command aborts, and no file name is created. Formerly -new.
-p	filename.ini	Starts SunPCi III software with the configuration information in the
		properties file specified with filename. The default properties file for
		SunPCi III is $HOME/pc/SunPC.ini.
-R		Forces the CMOS to be reloaded in the current disk.image file, similar to
		clearing the CMOS on a PC motherboard. This command is used when
		the BIOS setup option has changed, if SunPCi does not boot, or to restore
		SunPCi default settings. After using this command, a message displays
		confirming the CMOS has been updated.
-titleText string		Writes the title argument into the title bar of the SunPCi III window when
		the argument Text string is a quoted character string including spaces. The
		quotes are unnecessary if the character string contains no spaces.
-v		Directs video to the external video connector. Refer to FIGURE 10-1 to find
		the location of the video port. For information about how to set this for
		your monitor, consult the applicable operating system chapter for more
		information. Formerly -vga.
-w	[time]	Causes SunPCi III software to retry failed X server connections, either
		indefinitely (if no time argument follows -w), or for time seconds. If time is

specified and SunPCi III software has not successfully connected to an X server after time seconds, SunPCi III software exits. Formerly -xwait.
