+<para>
+
+The boot loader on SGI Indys is <command>arcboot</command>.
+It has to be installed on the same hard disk as the kernel (this is done
+automatically by the installer). Arcboot supports different configurations
+which are set up in <filename>/etc/arcboot.conf</filename>. Each
+configuration has a unique name,
+the default setup as created by the installer is <quote>linux</quote>.
+After arcboot has been installed, the system can be booted from hard disk
+by setting some firmware environment variables entering
+
+<informalexample><screen>
+<userinput> setenv SystemPartition scsi(<replaceable>scsi</replaceable>)disk(<replaceable>disk</replaceable>)rdisk(0)partition(0)</userinput>
+<userinput> setenv OSLoadPartition scsi(<replaceable>scsi</replaceable>)disk(<replaceable>disk</replaceable>)rdisk(0)partition(<replaceable>partnr</replaceable>)</userinput>

+<userinput> setenv OSLoadFilename <replaceable>config</replaceable></userinput>
+<userinput> setenv AutoLoad yes</userinput>
