Hello! :)

So, I mounted the EFI partition and copied the "elilo-3.6-ia64.efi" there!
I tried to run it on the EFI shell:
fs0:/EFI/debian>elilo-3.6-ia64.efi
(here my kernel was loaded normally and the elilo wasn`t updated!)

Any specific command to install the "elilo-3.6-ia64.efi" in the EFI shell?

Thanks!

Hi, Rodrigo

You should not run new elilo.efi on bash.

You should install new elilo.efi into /boot/efi of vfat filesystem.
And you should run it on EFI shell.

In the case of RHEL, we install it into /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/ .

Best Regards,

Akio Takebe
