Hi!<br />
<br />
I don't know exactly how it works over remote connection (telnet)<br />
I will not say that.<br />
<br />
Directly from keyboard:<br />
'init 0' - needed to stop OS and enter OBP.<br />
'boot cdrom' - you'll be able to do this only if no restrictions there.<br />
<br />
PS: The same from serial connection (if needed).<br />

Booting from CD-ROM

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
