Booting the Operating System Booting and Shutting Down HP-UX Step 3. At the EFI Shell environment, use the bcfg command to manage the boot options list. The bcfg command includes the following options for managing the boot options list: • bcfg boot dump - Display all items in the boot options list for the system. • bcfg boot rm # - Remove the item number specified by # from the boot options list. • bcfg boot mv #a #b - Move the item number specified by #a to the position specified by #b in the boot options list. • bcfg boot add # file.efi "Description" - Add 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\HPUX\HPUX.EFI "HP-UX 11i" adds an HP-UX 11i item as the first entry in the boot options list. Refer to the help bcfg command for details. Step 4.
