HP Integrity rx7640 and HP 9000 rp7440 Servers User Service Guide

4. Access the EFI System Partition for the device from which you want to boot HP-UX (fsX: where
X is the file system number).
For example, enter fs2: to access the EFI System Partition for the bootable file system number
2. The EFI Shell prompt changes to reflect the file system currently accessed.
The file system number can change each time it is mapped (for example, when the nPartition
boots, or when the map -r command is issued).
5. When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the HPUX command
to initiate the HPUX.EFI loader on the device you are accessing.
The full path for the loader is \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI. When initiated, HPUX.EFI references
the \EFI\HPUX\AUTO file and boots HP-UX using the default boot behavior specified in the
AUTO file.
You are given 10 seconds to interrupt the automatic booting of the default boot behavior.
Pressing any key during this 10-second period stops the HP-UX boot process and enables you
to interact with the HPUX.EFI loader. To exit the loader (the HPUX> prompt), enter exit (this
returns you to the EFI Shell).
To boot the HP-UX OS, do not type anything during the 10-second period given for stopping
at the HPUX.EFI loader.
