You can add the \EFI\redhat\elilo.efi loader or the \efi\SuSE\elilo.efi
loader to the boot options list from the EFI Shell or EFI Boot Configuration menu (or
in some versions of EFI, the Boot Option Maintenance Menu).
NOTE:
On Integrity servers, the operating system installer automatically adds an
entry to the boot options list.
1.
Access the EFI Shell environment.
a.
To access the server console, log in to iLO and enter CO.
b.
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, choose Exit
from the submenus until you return to the screen with the EFI Boot Manager
heading.
c.
To access the EFI Shell environment, choose EFI Shell from the EFI Boot
Manager menu.
2.
Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the file system number) for
the device from which you want to boot Linux.
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 Red Hat Enterprise Linux loader is \EFI\redhat\
elilo.efi and it should be on the device you are accessing.
The full path for the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server loader is \efi\SuSE\
elilo.efi and it should be on the device you are accessing.
3.
At the EFI Shell environment, use the bcfg command to manage the boot options
list.
The bcfg command includes the following options for managing the boot options
list:
bcfg boot dump — Displays all items in the boot options list for the server.
bcfg boot rm # — Removes the item number specified by # from the
boot options list.
bcfg boot mv #a #b — Moves the item number specified by #a to the
position specified by #b in the boot options list.
bcfg boot add # file.efi "Description" — Adds a new boot
option to the position in the boot options list specified by #. The new boot
option refers to file.efi and is listed with the title specified by
Description.
For example, bcfg boot add 1 \EFI\redhat\elilo.efi "Red Hat
Enterprise Linux"adds a Red Hat Enterprise Linux item as the first
entry in the boot options list.
Likewise, bcfg boot add 1 \efi\SuSE\elilo.efi "SLES 10" adds
a SuSE Linux item as the first entry in the boot options list.
For details, see the help bcfg command.
4.
Exit the console and iLO interfaces if you are finished using them.
To exit the server console and return to the iLO MP Main Menu, press Ctrl+B.
To exit iLO, enter X at the Main Menu.
