How to change the boot parameters on the MVME cpu boards

Bring up the consol of the PPC or MVME162. This can be done from the MUSR user interface.  Example shows M20vw.

Pressing Carriage Return (or Enter) should give you a prompt of either "->" if the board is booted up or "[VxWorks Boot]:" if not. Follow the appropriate instructions according to the prompt. 

[VxWorks Boot]: c
or
-> bootChange
A display of the boot-up parameters will be shown. To make a change, type the new parameter against the old. To keep the same parameter, press Carriage Return (or Enter). 
'.' = clear field;  '-' = go to previous field;  ^D = quit

boot device          : ei             <-*- type new parameter or press Enter key to leave unchanged 
processor number     : 0
host name            : m20dac
