Note – You can specify the name of the program to be booted as well as the way the
boot program operates. For more information, refer to the OpenBoot Command
Reference Manual for your specific Solaris OS release.
If you want to specify a network interface other than an on-board Ethernet
interface as the default boot device, you can determine the full path name of each

The show-devs command lists the system devices and displays the full path
name of each PCI device.
