3. Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the file system number) for the device from
which you want to boot HP-UX.
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.
NOTE: The file system number might change each time it is mapped (for example, when the
server boots, or when you issue the map -r command).
4. 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, the loader references
the \EFI\HPUX\AUTO file and proceeds to boot HP-UX using the default boot behavior
specified in the AUTO file.
You have 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 operating system, do not enter anything during the 10-second period given
for stopping at the HPUX.EFI loader.
