The following procedures show how to boot to different run levels from the ok PROM prompt. Use the who -r command to verify that the system is brought to the specified run level. Boot to run level 3 by using the boot 1M command. The automatic boot procedure displays a series of startup messages, and brings the system to run level 3.

Boot the system to run level S by using the boot -s command. To bring the system up to multiuser state after the system maintenance task is performed, press Control-d.

Boot the system interactively by using the boot -a command. Provide the name of an alternate system file and press Return. If you are not prompted to answer the questions in the table above, verify that you entered the boot -a command correctly.

In the following example, the default choices shown in square brackets [] are accepted. Any system can boot over the network if there is a boot server available. You might want to boot a standalone system over the network temporarily if it cannot boot from the local disk.

The default network boot strategy is set to RARP. If both methods are available, you can specify which service to use in the boot command temporarily, or save the network boot strategy across system reboots at the PROM level, by setting up an NVRAM alias.

The following nvalias command example sets up a network device alias for booting DHCP by default on a Sun Ultra 10 system. You should not use the nvalias command to modify the NVRAMRC file unless you are very familiar with the syntax of this command and the nvunalias command.

See the OpenBoot 3. If you need help identifying a system's device names, refer to Chapter 26, Accessing Devices Overview. Follow the instructions below depending on whether you are booting from the Solaris installation CD or the network.
