Access the EFI System Partition (fsX: where X is the file system number) for the device from which you want to boot HP-UX. Step 3. When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the HPUX command to initiate the \EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI loader on the device you are accessing. Step 4. Type any key within the 10 seconds given for interrupting the HP-UX boot process. This stops the boot process at the HPUX.EFI interface (the HP-UX Boot Loader prompt, HPUX>). Step 5. At the HPUX.EFI interface, enter the boot -lm vmunix command to boot HP-UX (the /stand/vmunix kernel) in LVM-maintenance (-lm) mode. Step 6.

Step 1.
Access the EFI Shell environment for the system on which you want to boot HP-UX in
LVM-maintenance mode.
Log in to the MP and enter
CO
to choose the system console.
When accessing the console, confirm that you are at the EFI Boot Manager menu (the main EFI

you want to boot HP-UX.
Step 3.
When accessing the EFI System Partition for the desired boot device, issue the
HPUX
command to
initiate the
\EFI\HPUX\HPUX.EFI
loader on the device you are accessing.
Step 4.
Type any key within the 10 seconds given for interrupting the HP-UX boot process. This stops the
boot process at the
HPUX.EFI
interface (the HP-UX Boot Loader prompt,
HPUX>
).
Step 5.
At the
HPUX.EFI
interface, enter the
boot -lm vmunix
command to boot HP-UX (the
/stand/vmunix
kernel) in LVM-maintenance (
-lm
) mode.
Step 6.
Exit the console and MP interfaces when finished using them.
Press
Ctrl-B
to exit the system console and return to the MP Main Menu. To exit the MP, type
