NAME
efi_rmdir — remove an EFI directory
SYNOPSIS
efi_rmdir
[-d
devicefile]
directory
DESCRIPTION
efi_rmdir
removes an EFI directory
The EFI file system is based on the FAT file system and used by the Itanium-based system BIOS to
locate an HP-UX bootloader.
See
efi(4).
devicefile
should be the device file
for the EFI volume.
If
directory
is not a directory or the directory is not empty,
efi_rmdir
prints a diagnostic message and returns without removing the file;
use
efi_rm(1M)
to remove EFI files.
directory
should be relative to
root of the EFI volume specified by
devicefile,
not to an HP-UX file system.
Options
efi_rmdir
recognizes the following option:
- -d devicefile
devicefile
is the device special file of the EFI file system from which the directory is
to be removed.
Without the
-d
option,
efi_rmdir
uses the device file specified in the environment variable
EFI_PARTITION
if it is defined.
The
-d
option overrides the
EFI_PARTITION
environment variable.
RETURN VALUE
efi_rmdir
returns exit code 0 if the directory is removed successfully.
Otherwise it prints a diagnostic message and returns nonzero.
- 0
Successful completion.
- >0
Error condition occurred.
