To mount the file system via NFS
The HP 16500B must be turned ON and completely booted up before you can
mount the file system. Once power is applied to the HP 16500B and the System
Configuration menu is displayed, allow an additional 15 seconds before
attempting to mount the system.
Be sure to unmount the HP 16500B's file system before turning the HP 16500B's
power OFF. If you don't do this, you may get a "stale NFS file handle" error
message the next time you try to mount. If you get this message, unmount the
file system and try mounting again.

The syntax of the mount command is typically:
mount [symbolic name|IP address]:/[control|data] /[directory
name]

system administrator. Typically, this name is found in the /etc/hosts file on
your computer or returned by a name server. It is equivalent to the
HP 16500B's IP (Internet Protocol) address.
The control or data option specifies the type of user you want to access the
HP 16500B as.
The directory name is the name of an empty directory in your computer's file
system to which the HP 16500B's file system will be mounted.
