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 system.
• 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 references file.efi and is listed with the
title specified by Description.
For example, bcfg boot add 1 \efi\vms\vms_loader.efi "HP OpenVMS" adds an HP
OpenVMS item as the first entry in the boot options list.
See the help bcfg command for details.
