206 MergePoint 5224/5240 Service Processor Manager Installer and Administrator Guide

Table D.1 provides more information about the create_cf command options, which you can view

from the Linux command line by entering the name of the command.

Examples for create_cf command usage

Both examples assume you have done a network boot and you want to save the boot image

from RAM.

To save a boot image to a compact Flash PC card:

1. Perform a network boot.

2. Insert a compact Flash PC card into a card slot.

3. Enter the following

create_cf command line to save a copy of the image from RAM onto the

card. The compact Flash card in the example is inserted into slot 1.

Table D.1: Options for the create_cf Command

Option Description

none Not recommended. Checks if a boot image is already on the target device. If no image is

on the target device (as would be true for a newly installed removable Flash on a PC

card) and if no image is specified, runs --doformat and installs the image in image1. If

multiple images are on the target device, and no image is specified, presents a choice of

images for the user to choose from, and then writes the image from RAM into the

specified image area. In either case, restores the factory default configuration.

-d device Creates the image on the specified device (the default device is /dev/hda - the

removable Flash memory). Used to create the image in another location, such as on an

installed compact Flash PC card. Device names for PC cards are determined by the

number of the card slot where the card is installed, either /dev/hdc (PC slot 1) or /dev/hde

(PC slot 2).

NOTE:Before using, make sure the filesystem is not mounted.

--factory_default

Creates the image using factory default configuration files. By default, if this option is not

entered, the configuration from the current partition is used, if valid. For more details, see

How Configuration Changes Are Handled on page 55.

--doformat

Rebuilds the partitions, erasing their contents. Creates the image as image1.

--dontformat Does not format the compact Flash. The sizes of partitions hda1-3 and 5-8 are checked.

If the partition sizes are not smaller than 2, 2, 5, 51, 51, 6, and 6 Mbytes respectively, the

image is installed in the specified image area.

--imageN

Creates/replaces imageN, when n=1 | 2. Use this option to replace only the specified

image without erasing both images. Changes the currentimage environment variable to

boot from the image.
