BOOT PROMPT COMMANDS
Boot prompt commands enable you to perform basic tasks, including
booting a system image file, from the boot prompt (boot>). A CLI session
enters the boot prompt if MSS does not boot successfully or you
intentionally interrupt the boot process. To interrupt the boot process,
press q followed by Enter (return).
CAUTION: Generally, boot prompt commands are used only for
troubleshooting. 3Com recommends that you use these commands only
when working with 3Com Technical Support to diagnose a system issue.
In particular, commands that change boot parameters can interfere with
a WX switch’s ability to boot successfully.
