Finding Bootable Devices You can find bootable devices by using any one of the following procedures: • "Finding Bootable Devices (BCH Menu)" (page 106) • "Finding Bootable Devices (EFI Shell)" (page 107) Procedure 5-3 Finding Bootable Devices (BCH Menu) From the BCH Main Menu, issue the SEARCH command to find bootable devices. The BCH Menu is available only on HP 9000 systems. 1. Access the BCH Main Menu for the nPartition whose bootable devices you want to list. Login to the service processor (MP or GSP) and enter CO to access the Console list. Select the nPartition console. When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the BCH Main Menu (the Main Menu: Enter command or menu> prompt). If at a BCH menu other than the Main Menu, then enter MA to return to the BCH Main Menu. 2. From the BCH Main Menu, issue the SEARCH command to find and list bootable devices in the nPartition. The SEARCH command reports all potential boot devices it locates. ---- Main Menu Command ------BOot [PRI|HAA|ALT|] PAth [PRI|HAA|ALT] [] SEArch [ALL|] ScRoll [ON|OFF] Description ----------Boot from specified path Display or modify a path Search for boot devices Display or change scrolling capability COnfiguration menu INformation menu SERvice menu Displays or sets boot values Displays hardware information Displays service commands DIsplay Redisplay the current menu HElp [|] Display help for menu or command REBOOT Restart Partition RECONFIGRESET Reset to allow Reconfig Complex Profile ---- Main Menu: Enter command or menu > SEARCH Searching for potential boot device(s) This may take several minutes.
