Installation and Configuration

The EFI shell will be opened, and the Device Mapping Table may be

listed by default (similar to Figure 1-19). If the Device Mapping Table

is not listed, type map and press Enter.

Figure 1-19 Device Mapping Table

The filesystems available to the server are listed in the Device

Mapping Table, referenced by "fsN", where N is a different number

for each available filesystem. The description next to the "fsN" entry

references the type of media on which the filesystem resides. In the

example shown in Figure 1-19, "fs0", "fs1" and "fs2" refer to memory

ramdisks; "fs3" and "fs4" refer to filesystems on a CD inserted in the

CD-ROM; "fs5" refers to a filesystem on a USB memory drive, and

"fs6" refers to an existing filesystem on an internal hard drive. The

filesystem you select depends upon what media contains the QLogic

EFI boot code/utility. In this example, the QLogic EFI boot

code/utility resides on the USB memory drive. Point the EFI shell to

the proper filesystem by typing fsN: (where N is the number which

references the proper filesystem) followed by Enter.
