HP-UX 11i v3 Installation and Update Guide, September 2009 (Update 5 Release)

NOTE: The cold-install process may involve multiple media swaps. To avoid manually
swapping media, use a network depot. For information, see “Network depot” (page 23).
Booting Your Itanium-based system
1. Make sure any external devices that need to be configured at cold-install are
connected to the target system and are turned on and operational.
2. Insert the HP-UX 11i v3 DVD (Disk 1) into the drive.
3. Turn the system on, reboot, or cycle power.
If the system boots automatically, the kernel scans the system for I/O devices.
If the system does not boot automatically, it goes to the boot menu. It is a timed
menu; press any key to stop the timer. Then, you can run the install manually from
the EFI shell using the following steps:
a. From the boot menu, select EFI Shell (Built In).
b. At the EFI shell prompt, specify the device name (for example, fs1:) for the
DVD-ROM and then enter the EFI install command, as in the following
example.
NOTE: Your DVD device may not always be fs1. Make sure you verify the
ID appropriate to your DVD device.
If the device is not automatically selected, select the device name for the
DVD-ROM and then execute install. For example, from the EFI shell
prompt, you may see something similar to the following:
Shell> fs1:
fs1:\> install
If you do not see the DVD-ROM device, use the map command to list all device
names from the EFI shell prompt. If you change the DVD in the drive after
going to the EFI shell, you must run the command map -r to allow EFI to
locate the bootable DVD in the drive
The list of devices is displayed automatically, and the install process selects
the device for you.
After the kernel has booted, it scans the system for I/O devices.
Booting your PA-RISC system
1. Make sure any external devices that need to be configured at cold-install are
connected to the target system and are turned on and operational.
2. Insert the HP-UX 11i v3 DVD (Disk 1) into the drive.
