LOAD(1prom)         RISC/os Reference Manual          LOAD(1prom)



NAME
     load - download image via serial line

SYNOPSIS
     load console_device

DESCRIPTION
     load allows you to load memory over a serial line connection
     from a system running the RISC/os program tip(1spp).  To
     download an image, use the tip(1spp) command to establish
     communication with either the local or remote console port
     of the machine to be downloaded.  For additional informa-
     tion, refer to tip(1spp).

     If you transfer data to the remote port, be sure that the
     remote port is enabled.  Refer to the enable command for
     additional information.  After trying several PROM Monitor
     commands to verify that tip(1spp) is communicating success-
     fully with the remote port, enter the load command, specify-
     ing either tty(0) or tty(1spp) to reflect the serial port
     with which tip(1spp) is communicating.  After you execute
     the load command, the PROM expects you to download an image.
     If you want to abort this mode, type a CONTROL-C. To down-
     load the image, refer to tip(1spp) The PROM Monitor returns
     to command mode after the download completes.  Use the PROM
     Monitor go(1prom) command to run the downloaded program.
