EFI Integrity help needed!

Francis Flan — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 06:26:41 GMT

Hi,
Im a newbie to Integrity systems and need some help installing.

I have a BL860c and wish to install HPUX 11i.
It has 2x73GB internal disks and 12GB RAM.

At the EFI shell I have
blk0 : Acpi (HWP.......
blk1 : Acpi (HWP.......
blk2 : Acpi (HWP.......

The cD-Rom vMedia I connected is blk2 (i think).
Now do I mount this to a filesystem?: mount blk2 fs0
What happens next?

meant to say:

I'd ask to put this in the hpux forum Francis and put "closing thread" to avoid replies.

cheers

Thanks for suggestion Briano but I'll leave it for a while in this forum.
Appears to be quiet at the moment....but it is lunchtime:)

I never did this on a blade, but you need to see a "fsx" device.

Do

EFI> reconnect -r
EFI> map -r

Example:

Shell> map -r
Device mapping table
fs0 : Acpi(HWP0002,0)/Pci(1|0)/Usb(1, 0)/HD(Part1,SigC3072E18)

Thanks for your reply.
There's no CD/DVD drive so I've used my own PC's - virtual media.

Without the vMedia:
Shell> map -r
Device mapping table
blk0 : Acpi(HWP0002,PNPOA3,200)/Pci(1|0)/Sas(Addr5000C500053EF9A5,Lun0)
blk1 : Acpi(HWP0002,PNPOA3,200)/Pci(1|0)/Sas(Addr5000C500053E7C9D,Lun0)

With vMedia:
Shell> map -r
Device mapping table
blk0 : Acpi(HWP0002,PNPOA3,200)/Pci(1|0)/Sas(Addr5000C500053EF9A5,Lun0)
blk1 : Acpi(HWP0002,PNPOA3,200)/Pci(1|0)/Sas(Addr5000C500053E7C9D,Lun0)
blk2 : Acpi(HWP0002,PNPOA3,0)/Pci(2|0)/Usb(0,2)

So im presuming that blk2 is the DVD. I'm expecting the DVD to be listed as a filesystem (fs)?
Any ides why this is or what I can do?

The documentation is not very detailed at this point, but I guess you need to create an image of the DVD first, see also
