Installation of HP UX 11i

Hi there,

I have a D-class server and I was running HPUX 11i on it. Somehow O/S was crashed now I am trying to re-install O/S again. When I am booting from CD ROM it directly goes in recovery mode and not giving me option or installation screen. I tried to change hard drive but still the same problem.

Some body have any idea about it ?

Thanks

Procedure:

Core OS CD in the cd-rom/dvd drive

Restart/Start the box

Interupt at the 10 second prompt.

SEA

Usually the last Random Access Device on the list is the CD.

BO P#

Replace # with the number returned by SEA

THis should bring you to a choice screen.

For 11i a dumb console shoule be set to term type EM100

Hello!

As SEP explain the flow, what you need is
to boot from the CD and you will have
the choice for install and for recovery

Hi Mehmood,

There was a thread in here recently that resolved the same problem. It was to do with the terminal type. It might pay to check the last 2 weeks threads. If I come across it, I'll post the solution they used.

Cheers
