4.2uBoot

uBoot is the boot loader. Much like a BIOS, it brings the system to a usable state for the operating system (OS) to boot. It also performs a POST of the CPU subsystem. It can be used as a recovery console if the firmware image becomes corrupt or a firmware update fails. Several important environment variables are stored in uBoot, only some of which should ever be changed, namely noekey and baudrate.

4.2.1uBoot Console

To get to a uBoot console, you must prevent the switch from booting into the OS. Shown here is an example of the start of a boot sequence.
