Server OS.
CAUTION:
ACPI Configuration for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server Must Be default
servers, to boot the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server OS, an nPartition ACPI configuration value
must be set to default.
At the EFI Shell, enter the acpiconfig command with no arguments to list the current ACPI
configuration. If the acpiconfig value is not set to default, then SuSE Linux Enterprise Server
could panic.
To set the ACPI configuration for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server:
• At the EFI Shell enter the acpiconfig default command.
• Enter the reset command for the nPartition to reboot with the proper (default)
configuration for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server.
Use either of the following methods to boot SuSE Linux Enterprise Server:
• Choose a SuSE Linux Enterprise Server entry from the EFI Boot Manager menu.
To load the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server OS at the EFI Boot Manager menu, choose its entry
from the list of boot options.
Choosing a Linux entry from the boot options list boots the OS using ELILO.EFI loader
and the elilo.conf file.
• Initiate the ELILO.EFI Linux loader from the EFI Shell.
Refer to the procedure
details.
After choosing the file system for the boot device (for example, fs0:), you can initiate the
Linux loader from the EFI Shell prompt by entering the full path for the ELILO.EFI loader.
On a SuSE Linux Enterprise Server boot device EFI System Partition, the full paths to the
loader and configuration files are:
\efi\SuSE\elilo.efi
\efi\SuSE\elilo.conf
By default the ELILO.EFI loader boots Linux using the kernel image and parameters specified
by the default entry in the elilo.conf file on the EFI System Partition for the boot device.
To interact with the ELILO.EFI loader, interrupt the boot process (for example, type a space)
at the ELILO boot prompt. To exit the ELILO.EFI loader, use the exit command.
Procedure 4-19 Booting SuSE Linux Enterprise Server (EFI Shell)
Use this procedure to boot SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 from the EFI Shell.
Refer to "ACPI Configuration for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server Must Be default" (page 118)
required configuration details.
1. Access the EFI Shell.
From the system console, select the EFI Shell entry from the EFI Boot Manager menu to
access the shell.
2. Access the EFI System Partition for the SuSE Linux Enterprise Server boot device.
Use the map EFI Shell command to list the file systems (fs0, fs1, and so on) that are known
and have been mapped.
To select a file system to use, enter its mapped name followed by a colon (:). For example,
to operate with the boot device that is mapped as fs3, enter fs3: at the EFI Shell prompt.
