Booting in ONIE Install Mode
© Copyright Lenovo 2017
This mode is used to install a NOS using ONIE. The ONIE install mode boots the
ONIE kernel and file-system and executes the ONIE discovery process. The
discovery process uses a number of different mechanisms to find a NOS installer
program.
Once a NOS installer is found, it is downloaded and executed. The installer loads
the Network OS on the switch, updates required ONIE environment variables and
reboots the switch.
The switch will now run its newly installed Network OS and behave like a regular
switch. The user can, at any point, reboot and run the ONIE installer again to
install another Network OS.
The Lenovo ONIE installer image, which installs the different Lenovo Network
Operating Systems, is called onie-installer-powerpc-lenovo_g8272-r0,
and it is available at the following link:
http://support.lenovo.com/
To boot the switch in ONIE install mode on the next reload, use the following
command from the switch CLI:

G8272(config)# boot image onie-image install
