Re: boot from CD

Hi Igor,

# shutdown -r -y now

Hit the escape key when the following message appears:

Searching for a system to boot, press and hold the escape key to override

At the menu, type:
>sea

boot from the cdrom path.

Re: boot from CD

you can also check to see what boot devices are there with following command.

> search ip

when you have the list of the devices, use "boot" to boot from it.

> boot

Hi Rudensky Igor ,

Which OS you are refering to,!

If its Linux you can boot the system through the "KNOPPIX Linux Live CD",


Cheers,
Raj.
