The BOF should be on the same drive as the bootstrap image file. If the system cannot load or cannot find the BOF, the system checks whether the boot sequence was manually interrupted or else continues with the auto-init mode. The system prompts for a different image and configuration location.
Auto-init is not supported on the 7210 SAS-R6 and 7210 SAS-R12; use the starter BOF or create a BOF manually to boot the system.
