How to Use the ROM Monitor—Typical Tasks
Boot the first image in flash memory.
Boot the first image or a specified image in flash
memory.
Boot the specified image over the network from the
specified TFTP server (hostname or IP address).
Boot from the boothelper image because it does not
recognize the device ID. This form of the command is
used to boot a specified image from a network (TFTP)
server.
Boot the image stored on the USB flash device.
Platforms can boot from USB in ROM monitor with
or without a compact flash device. It is not
necessary to use a bootloader image from the
compact flash device. Partitions, such as
usbflash0:2:image_name, are not supported on USB
flash drives. The boot usbflash<x>: command will
boot the first file on the device, if it is a valid image.
Options for the boot command are -x (load image but
do not execute) and -v (verbose).
