2 OsLoadOptions = /REDIRECT /NOVESA
3 EfiOsLoaderFilePath = cf5f2ddc-b885-11d7-b831-000000000000 ::
\efi\microsoft\winnt50\ia64ldr.efi
4 OsLoaderFilePath = e605a034-b885-11d7-b831-000000000000 :: \windows
Enter VAR to modify: 2
4. At the Enter VAR to modify: prompt, select the second variable to modify

2 OsLoadOptions = /REDIRECT /NOVESA /DEBUG /BAUDRATE=115200
3 EfiOsLoaderFilePath = cf5f2ddc-b885-11d7-b831-000000000000 ::
\efi\microsoft\winnt50\ia64ldr.efi
4 OsLoaderFilePath = e605a034-b885-11d7-b831-000000000000 :: \windows
7. After verifying the changes to the OsLoadOptions variable, exit and boot the operating
