BOOTLIST(8) Linux on Power Service Tools BOOTLIST(8)NAMEbootlist - update and view the bootlistSYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/bootlist -m normal|service|both [-o|-r] <dev_list>
/usr/sbin/bootlist -m normal|service|both [-o|-r] -f file
DESCRIPTION
The bootlist command allows users to view and update the system
bootlist stored in NVRAM for PowerPC-64 machines. The bootlist entries
can be specified as either logical device names or Open Firmware device
path names. The bootlist will convert all names to Open Firmware
device path names using ofpathname when updating the bootlist. Then
uses the nvram command to update NVRAM. If a list of devices is speciā
fied, the boot list will be updated with the list provided. If a list
is not specified, the current boot list will be printed.
OPTIONS-m normal|service|both
Required; specify whether the normal or service mode boot list
should be viewed/updated. Specifying "both" will update the
normal and service mode boot lists.
-o Display the current boot list entries as logical device names.
-r Display the current boot list entries as Open Firmware device
path names (default).
-f file
Read the bootlist device names from file, one entry per line.
dev_list
A space-separated list of devices, specified as logical device
names or OF device path names, depending on whether the -o or -r
option is specified.
EXAMPLES
View the normal mode boot list as logical device names:
/usr/sbin/bootlist -o -m normal
Update the service mode boot list:
/usr/sbin/bootlist -o -m service /dev/sda3 /dev/cdrom
