Adding a Microsoft Windows Boot Option
This procedure adds the Microsoft Windows item to the boot options list.
Step 1. Access the EFI Shell environment.
Log in to the management processor, and enter
CO
to access the system console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main EFI
menu). If you are at another EFI menu, select the Exit option from the submenus until you return
to the screen with the
EFI Boot Manager
heading.
From the EFI Boot Manager menu, select the EFI Shell menu option to access the EFI Shell
environment.
Step 2. Access the EFI System Partition for the device from which you want to boot Microsoft Windows
(
fs
X
:
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 full path for the Microsoft Windows loader is
\efi\microsoft\winnt50\ia64ldr.efi
, and it
should be on the device you are accessing. (However, you must initiate this loader only from the EFI
Boot Menu and not from the EFI Shell.)
Step 3. List the contents of the
\EFI\Microsoft\WINNT50
directory to identify the name of the Windows
boot option file (
Boot00nn
) that you want to import into the system boot options list.
fs0:\>
ls EFI\Microsoft\WINNT50
Directory of: fs0:\EFI\Microsoft\WINNT50
09/18/03 11:58a <DIR> 1,024 .
09/18/03 11:58a <DIR> 1,024 ..
12/18/03 08:16a 354 Boot0001
1 File(s) 354 bytes
2 Dir(s)
fs0:\>
Step 4. At the EFI Shell environment, issue the
\MSUtil\nvrboot.efi
command to launch the Microsoft
Windows boot options utility.
fs0:\>
msutil\nvrboot
