Note:
1) If there is different OS(other than ONL) running on the switch.
Then halt the booting process at U-boot mode, Then check for the ONIE
details in the environment(=> printenv). Open the ONIE in rescue mode,
while ONIE has many different installation modes,
we recommend the rescue mode for doing a manual (read: via console)
because it disables the automatic ONIE server discovery.
Then run (=> run onie_rescue) command to take you to the ONIE environment.
2) For development purpose, to load freshly build ONL installer from directly ONIE.
Run a http server from the build machine (example:python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000) and access it as,
example: ONIE:/ # install_url http://buildmachineIPAddress:/path/to/directory/onl-09b7bba-powerpc-all.2016.02.05.05.17.installer # update for specific file/date/build
Also, you can use install via scp with two steps,
example: ONIE:/ # scp [username]@buildmachineIPAddress:/path/to/directory/onl-09b7bba-powerpc-all.2016.02.05.05.17.installer ONL.installer # update for specific file/date/build
ONIE:/ # sh ONL.installer
