1. From the EFI Shell, enter the reconnect -r command. The reconnect command reconnects drivers from a device, disconnecting drivers from all devices and then reconnecting them. If you do not specify a device handle, the reconnect operation is performed on all handles in the system. If you specify a device handle, only the device handle and the devices below it are reconnected. 2. From the EFI Shell, enter the map -r command. The -r option regenerates all mappings in a system. The EFI Shell displays the device mapping table, as follows. fs0 : Acpi(PNP0A03,0)/Pci(2|0)/Ata(Primary,Master)/CDROM(Entry1) blk0 : Acpi(PNP0A03,1)/Pci(1|0)/Scsi(Pun0,Lun0) blk1 : Acpi(PNP0A03,0)/Pci(2|0)/Ata(Primary,Master) blk2 : Acpi(PNP0A03,0)/Pci(2|0)/Ata(Primary,Master)/CDROM(Entry1) 3. Note the device name of the CD device (in the above example): fs0 You use this to explore the contents of the CD or DVD. The map command displays or defines a mapping between a user-defined name and a device handle. The most common use of this command is to assign drive letters to device handles that support a file system protocol. When these mappings are created, the drive letters can be used with all file manipulation commands. Use the map command to create or to delete mappings with the -d option. If you use the map command without parameters, all current mappings are listed. If you use the -v option, the mappings are shown with additional information on each mapped handle. The following table describes the device mapping fields. Table 1-4 EFI device mapping fields Item Description blkn This is a block device that indicates a physical drive or a partition on a physical drive. A physical drive can be a hard disk drive or a removable media drive. A Partn appears when a disk drive contains a partition. Acpi(Device,X) Acpi is Advanced Configuration and Power Interface. The device type is the first entry in parentheses. The second entry, X, is the PCI host number. Pci(D/F) This indicates PCI-related information. D is the PCI device/slot number and F is the PCI function number. Scsi(Pun.Lun) This denotes the physical characteristic of the SCSI disk. Pun is the SCSI number and Lun is the LUN number on the physical device. HD(Part,Sig) This indicates the partition Part and EFI signature Sig on the partition. Set ACPI Flag to Windows (Cell-Based Servers Only) On cell-based servers, you must set the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) flag to the value relevant for the OS it boots. For the server to boot to Windows Server 2003, set the ACPI flag to windows. If you purchased your server with a Windows OS option, this flag is set to windows in the factory. If you purchased the server with a different OS or no OS, you must set this flag to windows. CAUTION: If you boot the server to Windows Server 2003 without setting the ACPI flag to windows, the OS displays a blue screen error. To set the ACPI flag, complete the following steps: Task 7: Prepare the Server Hardware for OS Installation 27
