system will be used. For bare metal, or if no Windows operating system is found, the disk layout
will be used according to the bootable media environment (Linux-based or Windows PE).
3. The Linux-based bootable media shows local disks and volumes as unmounted (sda1, sda2...).
4. The log lifetime is limited to the current session. You can save the entire log or the filtered log
entries to a file.
8.1.2.1 Setting up a display mode
For a machine booted from media, a display video mode is detected automatically based on the
hardware configuration (monitor and graphics card specifications). If, for some reason, the video
mode is detected incorrectly, do the following:
1. In the boot menu, press F11.
2. Add the following command to the command prompt: vga=ask, and then proceed with booting.
3. From the list of supported video modes, choose the appropriate one by typing its number (for
example, 318), and then press ENTER.
If you do not wish to follow this procedure every time you boot from media on a given hardware
configuration, re-create the bootable media with the appropriate mode number (in our example,
vga=0x318) typed in the Kernel parameters window—see Linux-based bootable media (p. 65) for
details.
8.1.2.2 List of commands and utilities available in Linux-based bootable
media
Linux-based bootable media contains the following commands and command line utilities, which you
can use when running a command shell. To start the command shell, press CTRL+ALT+F2 while in the
bootable media's management console.
