Sh NAME
Nm boot
Nd system bootstrapping procedures
Sh DESCRIPTION
Windows\ CE machines with
Tn StrongARM
CPUs use the
Xr hpcboot 8
program to boot
Nx .
Ss Power fail and crash recovery
\"
Unfortunately,
Nx
can't reboot itself at power-up or after crashes.
The machine will go through the cold reset and boot into Windows\ CE.
You will have to restart
Nx
manually using
Xr hpcboot 8 .
Pp
Once
Nx
starts, an automatic consistency check of the file systems will be
performed, and unless this fails, the system will resume multi-user
operations.
\"
Ss Cold starts
\"
On cold reset Windows\ CE handheld machines attempt to boot the Windows\ CE
operating system from the boot ROM.
The boot ROM is usually not rewritable, so you cannot erase or damage
Windows\ CE image.
Pp
You can't boot
Nx
directly, skipping Windows\ CE.
The
Nx
bootloader,
Xr hpcboot 8 ,
is provided as a Windows\ CE application program instead.
Though the bootloader is an application program, it blows the entire
running Windows\ CE, its data, and its settings away from RAM (but not
ROM!\&) when the kernel boots successfully.
If
Nx
is halted the machine will go through the cold reset and will reboot
into Windows\ CE.
\"
Ss Normal Operation
\"
Please, refer to the
Xr hpcboot 8
manual page.
Sh FILES
\"

Sh SEE ALSO
\"
Xr hpcboot 8
\"
Sh BUGS
\"
There is no general way to launch the bootloader automatically, as
only a few Windows\ CE machines provide an
Dq auto run
mechanism.
Pp
This port doesn't support
Xr kloader 4 ,
which means that when the system is rebooted, it goes back to Windows\ CE.
