@(#)boot_hp300.8 8.2 (Berkeley) 4/19/94
.Dd April 5, 1999 .Dt BOOT 8 alpha .Os .Sh NAME .Nm boot .Nd Alpha system bootstrapping procedures .Sh DESCRIPTION When the .Nx Ns Tn /alpha kernel is booted normally it initializes itself and proceeds to start the system. An automatic consistency check of the file systems takes place, and unless this fails, the system comes up to multi-user operation. The proper way to shut the system down is with the .Xr shutdown 8 command.
p
If the system crashes, it will enter the kernel debugger,
.Xr ddb 4 ,
if it is configured in the kernel.
If the crash occurred during initialization and the debugger is
not present or is exited, the kernel will halt the system.
If the crash occurred during normal operation and the debugger
is not present or is exited, the system will attempt a dump to the
configured dump device (which will be automatically recovered with
.Xr savecore 8
during the next boot cycle), and after the dump is complete (successful
or not) the kernel will attempt a reboot.
