What is startup.nsh?
startup.nsh is a UEFI Shell concept used to inspect firmware state before the OS boots.
Why it matters
- Provides a hands-on command for inspecting firmware state.
- Helps verify drivers, devices, variables, memory maps, or filesystems before OS boot.
- Useful for quick checks without rebuilding the firmware image.
Practical example
Example: use Shell commands such as drivers, devtree, dh, dmpstore, memmap, and map to inspect firmware state before the OS takes over.
Quick checklist
- Is the command supported by this Shell version?
- Does the output match the expected firmware state?
- Can the result be cross-checked with another command?
Quick takeaway
startup.nsh is a small concept, but it often becomes important when reading logs or debugging real firmware.
