On Alpha, you must specify the filename (as a relative path to the boot image directory) using the <userinput>-file</userinput> argument to the SRM <userinput>boot</userinput> command, or by setting the <userinput>BOOT_FILE</userinput> environment variable. Alternatively, the filename can be given via BOOTP (in ISC <command>dhcpd</command>, use the <userinput>filename</userinput> directive). Unlike Open Firmware, there is <emphasis>no default filename</emphasis> on SRM, so you <emphasis>must</emphasis> specify a filename by either one of these methods.

SPARC TFTP Booting

174.

Some SPARC architectures add the subarchitecture names, such as <quote>SUN4M</quote> or <quote>SUN4C</quote>, to the filename. Thus, if your system's subarchitecture is a SUN4C, and its IP is 192.168.1.3, the filename would be <filename>C0A80103.SUN4C</filename>. However, there are also subarchitectures where the file the client looks for is just <filename>client-ip-in-hex</filename>. An easy way to determine the hexadecimal code for the IP address is to enter the following command in a shell (assuming the machine's intended IP is 10.0.0.4). <informalexample><screen>
$ printf '%.2x%.2x%.2x%.2x\n' 10 0 0 4
</screen></informalexample> To get to the correct filename, you will need to change all letters to uppercase and if necessary append the subarchitecture name.

If you've done all this correctly, giving the command <userinput>boot net</userinput> from the OpenPROM should load the image. If the image cannot be found, try checking the logs on your tftp server to see which image name is being requested.

176.

You can also force some sparc systems to look for a specific file name by adding it to the end of the OpenPROM boot command, such as <userinput>boot net my-sparc.image</userinput>. This must still reside in the directory that the TFTP server looks in.

BVM/Motorola TFTP Booting

178.

For BVM and Motorola VMEbus systems copy the files &bvme6000-tftp-files; to <filename>/tftpboot/</filename>.

179.

Next, configure your boot ROMs or BOOTP server to initially load the <filename>tftplilo.bvme</filename> or <filename>tftplilo.mvme</filename> files from the TFTP server. Refer to the <filename>tftplilo.txt</filename> file for your subarchitecture for additional system-specific configuration information.

SGI TFTP Booting

181.

On SGI machines you can rely on the <command>bootpd</command> to supply the name of the TFTP file. It is given either as the <userinput>bf=</userinput> in <filename>/etc/bootptab</filename> or as the <userinput>filename=</userinput> option in <filename>/etc/dhcpd.conf</filename>.
