Many thanks to Martin Moore and Sean O'Connell who both pointed out that
you must set bootdef_dev, which then resets bootdev on the next reboot.

The answer to putting multiple devices in the boot_dev parameter is to
separate the devices by a comma when giving the command:

P0>>>set bootdef_dev dkb0.0.0.3.0,dkc0.0.0.5.0

Thanks again,
