The INSTALL utility on a factory system load tape replaces
a system's configuration files with a default configuration. These
defaults allow the system manager or system supervisor to boot the
system to a fully operational level. You should then alter the functioning
configuration to meet your system's needs using SYSGEN.
START uses CONFIG as its default configuration group. Before a system
can actually use the START command default to start the system, however, a functioning
set of configuration files must reside in the configuration group CONFIG.
Since multiple configuration groups reside on a factory system
load tape, CONFIG is empty on disk after an INSTALL until the system manager copies an appropriate
configuration group into it using SYSGEN. The following is a list
of appropriate configuration groups depending upon which HP e3000
system you are working with.
The next sections show portions of the default input and output
(I/O) configurations as shown in Table D-1 “Default Configurations for the HP e3000”

 | NOTE: The PB-FL card is the FL card that is used in precision
bus systems, such as 99X systems.For specific information on how to start the system
with the default configuration files, refer to the HP
e3000 MPE/iX System Software Maintenance Manual. |
