If I understand correctly, you need to change bootmenu item. It can be done this way:

Code: Select all

setenv -p MENU_1_LABEL "My new label"
setenv -p MENU_1_COMMAND "boot xyz"

and then type "menu" in CFE to continue boot with new items without hard reset.

And just to supplement that: The menu entry numbers start at zero, so the above commands would set the second one.

Also remember that you can see all your CFE variables from an AmigaOS Shell by entering "nvgetvar". Unfortunately, there's no corresponding nvsetvar command for the X1000 (only for the Sams). But it's still handy to see all the values you have, and (highly recommended!) to save them in a text file e.g. on a USB stick and/or print them, before you start messing with them.

Believe me, I speak from experience here ... :-/
