- Get into attended boot with the terminal (hold escape key down).
- Go to boot admin with
- a <ret>
- Set up paths with
- path console graphics_1 <ret> (or graphcis_2 depending upon sgc slot)
- path keyboard hil <ret>
- Check for success with
- path <ret>
- At this point the stable storage is correct but the boot code doesn't
- know about it you can either cycle power, or (still in boot admin)
- reset <ret>
-
- Hope this helps,
