on HP 9000 servers.

LVM-Maintenance mode.
Log in to the management processor and enter co to access the console list. Select the nPartiton
console. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the BCH Main Menu (the Main
Menu: enter command or menu> prompt). If you are at a BCH menu other than the Main
Menu, then enter ma to return to the Main Menu.
2. Boot the desired device by using the boot command at the BCH interface and specify that
the nPartition stop at the ISL prompt prior to booting (reply y to the stop at the ISL
prompt question).
3. From the ISL prompt, issue the appropriate Secondary System Loader (hpux) command to
boot the HP-UX kernel in the desired mode.
