Appendix B
USING NVEDIT TO MODIFY
NVRAM
B.1 NVRAM Edit Commands
This section discusses the use of NVRAM. The NVRAM is used
for setting resolution in the Video-Mode and Video-Timing
methods. To edit the NVRAM, type nvedit at the ok prompt.
There are several commands that you must use to edit the
variables in NVRAM:
deletes the character preceding the cursor
lists NVRAM current values
moves to the previous line
moves to the next line
moves to the previous character
moves to the next character
deletes to the beginning of the line
joins the current and next line
deletes the current line
exits the NVRAM editor (back to the ok
prompt)
The changes will only take effect if they are stored using the
nvstore
command entered at the ok prompt. Once the
changes are stored, the NVRAM must be enabled before the
system will execute it. This is done by setting the environment
variable use-nvramrc? to true. Type reset to reboot the
system and make the changes effective.
