We have an HP integrity rx2660 that we would like to put into our lab for SLES12 purposes. From my google search, it looks like SLES12 supports titanium processors, no? If so, how exactly do you boot from the SLES12 CD to install it? I have booted to the EFI shell and fs0: is the CD ROM. I have also tried to “boot from file” and browsed to boot-\> and tried every one of those options (bootx64.efi, grub.efi and mokmanager.efi, all of these result in unsupported error. ---
