The only boot information that RARP provides is the Micro-CS’s Internet

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
The Micro-CS’s operational image can be installed from a UNIX host on
a network. To do this, the operational code must first be loaded on the
UNIX host. The Micro-CS may also be booted from software loaded on a
another Micro-CS or from Flash memory (see Chapter 3). When loading
the Micro-CS software for the first time, use the ROM Monitor
commands. At the monitor prompt:
1.
Execute the erase command to clear the EEPROM. (See the erase
command in Chapter 3.)
2.
Execute the addr command to:
Enter the Micro-CS’s Internet address.
Modify any other parameters that the Micro-CS may require for the
initial boot, i.e., the preferred load host’s Internet address and the
subnet mask. (See the addr command in Chapter 3.)
3.
If you are booting the Micro-CS using a Serial Line Internet Protocol
