Yes, just change the openboot param for boot-device to cdrom or scdrom. It
should be set to disk net.

i.e. at the ok prompt type setenv boot-device cdrom

Hello,
This has probably been covered before, but I will ask anyway.
Can the 3gx be setup to boot only from an external SCSI CDROM?
Is it possible?
Rick
