EFI .. driver loading.

Derek_52 — Thu, 15 Apr 2004 11:24:25 GMT

Hi,

I'm trying to load EFI drivers. I was wondering how do I get the .efi file on to the FAT partition for loading? Or can anybody reference a document explain how to load drivers via EFI. or is there anyway to mount filesystem partition to load the drivers?

What OS are you running on the Itanium machine?

HP-UX can copy onto and off of the EFI partition using the efi_cp command.
Look at "man efi", "man efi_cp", and "man efi_ls".

in the EFI shell (if you have install HPUX),you can change dir to FS0:,in that dir,you can find network subdir.under that dir, you can find some tools to config network card(IP address),and ftp. You can ftp file to your EFI FAT partition by ftp.you can use command load to load the driver which you want to updata,just like :load xx.efi
hope to help you!
