Select the option to boot an alternate file and then, from the next menu, select the option to boot from the hard disk:

Code: Select all

New Source for Boot File
1> Hard Disk
2> Ethernet
3> SCSI

Enter Choice> 1


Then when prompted, enter the following file specification:

Code: Select all

Enter file spec> 0 1 vmunix
