Boot Menu (EFI) on RX4640

Kirk Gray — Thu, 24 Mar 2005 12:10:17 GMT

In trying to clean up the EFI boot menu on a RX4640, we accidentally deleted the "good" entry for booting 64 bit Win2k3 Enterprise Edititon. Does anyone know how to recover a boot entry. I have used the EFI explorer to find the boot file, but it will not load and states that I need to restore NVRAM to load it. Any ideas???

Thanks,
Kirk

Hi Kirk,

You should go to the FSUtil folder on the EFI partition (or on youw windows CD if it's no on the EFI partition) and use the nvrboot utility.
Here you can modify the boot option menu or restore a previous bootfile. You should have a default bootfile which was created automatically during setup.

Good luck, Marco

Marco,

Thanks for the quick response. You are correct. I got in touch with the HP Integrity support team and they sent me a doc that walks me through what you described.

Problem solved.

Thanks,
Kirk
