8.5 Copying the Default Boot Images

This section explains how to copy the default boot images (initrd and the Linux kernel file) to the appropriate directories on the Admin/Branch Server so they are ready to be distributed to the Point of Service terminals.

  1. Use the following command to copy the default initrd file to the /opt/SLES/POS/rsync/boot/ directory as initrd.gz (type the command all on one line):

    cp /opt/SLES/POS/image/initrd-disknetboot-version-date.gz 
    /opt/SLES/POS/rsync/boot/initrd.gz
    
  2. Use the following command to copy the default kernel file to the /opt/SLES/POS/rsync/boot/ directory as linux (type the command all on one line):

    cp /opt/SLES/POS/image/initrd-disknetboot-version-date.kernel. kernel_version /opt/SLES/POS/rsync/boot/linux
