Enabling the UEFI Shell Script Auto Start

You can enable or disable automatic execution of the default UEFI Shell startup script during shell
startup. When enabled, the shell looks for the startup.nsh file in any of the FAT16 or FAT32
file systems available. If you do not have the startup.nsh file, name the script file “startup.nsh”
and place it in a UEFI accessible file system on a fixed or removable media. Configure this option
only when Boot Mode is set to UEFI. HP recommends that you have only one startup.nsh file
on one file system. See

“Selecting a Boot Mode” (page 41)

for more information.

1.
