2.1.
Boot Menu
During the boot procedure, press the
ESC
key in the
Secondstage Loader
when the
Loading Kernel
message is shown on the screen.
A menu with four boot options as well as an option for resetting the thin client to the default factory
settings will appear:
-
Quiet Boot (page 9):
Normal boot
-
Verbose Boot (page 9):
Boot with system messages
-
Emergency Boot (page 9):
Setup only
-
Failsafe Boot
(page 10): With CRC check
-
Reset to Factory Defaults (page 10):
Resets the thin client to the default factory settings
2.1.1.
Quiet Boot
Quiet Boot
is the default boot mode. In this mode, all kernel messages are disabled and the graphical user
interface is started.
2.1.2.
Verbose Boot
Unlike in
Quiet Boot
mode, the boot messages are shown in
Verbose Boot
mode. A diagnostics shell is also
available. This can be used to execute common commands (such as
ifconfig
etc.) when searching for and
rectifying faults.
Enter
init
3
to close this shell.
The boot procedure will then resume.
2.1.3.
Emergency Boot
Emergency Boot
is a setup with default parameters.
If you select
Emergency Boot
, the Secondstage Loader looks for a bootable system in the flash memory and
then resumes the boot procedure as in the other boot modes.
Essentially speaking, the X-Server is started without network drivers and with a resolution of 1024 x 768 -
60 Hz during an
Emergency Boot
. The
Setup
menu is then opened directly.
This option is useful if, for example, you have selected an excessively high screen resolution or a wrong
mouse type and these settings can no longer be changed in the normal setup.
