When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the HPUX command
to initiate the HPUX.EFI loader on the device you are accessing.
The full path for the loader is \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI. When initiated, the loader references
the \EFI\HPUX\AUTO file and proceeds to boot HP-UX using the default boot behavior
specified in the AUTO file.
You have 10 seconds to interrupt the automatic booting of the default boot behavior. Pressing
any key during this 10-second period stops the HP-UX boot process and enables you to
interact with the HPUX.EFI loader. To exit the loader (the HPUX> prompt) enter exit (this
returns you to the EFI Shell).
To boot the HP-UX operating system, do not type anything during the 10-second period
given for stopping at the HPUX.EFI loader.
