• Process controlled by a number of configuration variables – auto-boot? – whether or not to boot automatically
– boot-command – which command should be executed?
– diag-switch - sets whether to run diagnostic mode
– boot-device – name of the default boot device
– boot-file – boot arguments when not in diagnostic mode
– diag-device – default diagnostic mode boot device
– diag-file – diagnostic mode boot arguments

SPARC Boot Phases
• Open Boot PROM phase
– OBP
– Boot block is loaded into system memory
• Boot phase
– Boot archive is read and executed
– Relies on boot file system format (disk, NFS, http)
• Ramdisk phase
– Contains kernel modules and components to boot Solaris 11
• Kernel phase
– Final stage of the boot process
– Root filesystem is mounted on the ramdisk
– For installation, the ramdisk remains mounted
– If not, it extracts the remaining primary modules from the boot
archive and mounts the real root filesystem

X86 Boot Phases
• BIOS phase:
– BIOS initializes the CPU, memory, and platform hardware
• Boot Loader phase
– First software that runs when you turn on a system
– Loads from the configured boot device
– Starts the boot process
• GRUB is the boot loader on Oracle Solaris
– Grand Unified Boot Loader
– Responsible for loading a boot archive into system memory.
– Boot archive is a collection of critical files needed during system
startup
– Run from configuration file – menu.lst
– Solaris kernel is fully compliant with the Multiboot Specification.

Network Boot
• Client knows it’s MAC but needs an IP address
• Uses TFTP to transfer from the network via … – dhcp
– bootp
– Rarp
• Bootprom uses bootparams file to obtain boot parameters
• ok boot <full_path_to_network_device>
• Ex: ok boot /pci@7c0/pci@0/pci@2/network@0,1
• DHCP offers the most flexibility
• For network boot you can supply options directly …
– boot - <path> :dhcp|bootp server=ip, boot filename, client-ip, router-
ip, boot-retries,tftp-retries, subnet-mask
