There are no -command line arguments. -.Pp -.Nm -functions identically to the standalone bootblocks, except that it -only loads files on a DOS partition. After printing the `Boot:' -prompt, there is a timeout of several seconds. If no key is pressed in -that time, the default kernel -.Em bsd -is loaded from the root directory of the DOS C: partition. -.Sh CAVEATS -The file -.Pa /usr/mdec/boot.com -and a valid kernel file must be copied to the root directory -of the DOS C: partition. -.Pp -If the desired FFS root filesystem is not on the first drive in the -system, the -.Fl r -flag (use the kernel's compiled-in default root device) -must be supplied when booting the kernel, i.e.: -.Pp -.Bd -literal -offset indent -Boot: [[[wd(0,a)]bsd][-abcdrs]] : bsd -r -.Ed -.Sh BUGS -.Nm -will not load kernels compressed with -.Xr gzip 1 , -or ramdisk kernels larger than 3M in size. -.Pp -.Nm -always assumes the kernel is in the root directory of the DOS drive; to -load a kernel from the current directory, the name must be entered at -the `Boot:' prompt with no leading slashes. -.Pp -Loading a kernel from anywhere -other than the root directory or the current directory is not supported. -.Sh FILES -.Pa /usr/mdec/boot.com |
