45The \fBbootadm\fR command manages the boot archive and, with x86 boot
46environments, the boot loader menu. The
47\fBupdate-archive\fR option provides a way for user to update the boot archive
48as a preventative measure or as part of a recovery procedure. The
49\fBset-menu\fR subcommand allows you to switch the \fBauto-boot\fR timeout and
50default boot entry in the boot menu.

78The \fBbootadm\fR command determines dynamically the options supported by the
79image to be managed, so that \fBbootadm\fR invoked on one platform can be used
80to manage diskless clients of a different platform type.
