[MinnowBoard] Missing efi shell commands

[He, Tim]

Did you build bios using GCC?  Because the binary size built by GCC is larger than the binary size built by VS, so the binary built by GCC is using Mini shell instead of full shell by default.

For GCC build, you can also modify the PlatformPkgGcc.fdf as following, to change shell  definition from mini shell to full shell,  and you need make sure it don’t have build size issue after the changes.
FILE APPLICATION = PCD(gEfiIntelFrameworkModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdShellFile) {
    SECTION PE32 = ShellBinPkg/UefiShell/$(EDK_DXE_ARCHITECTURE)/Shell.efi
  }


Best Regards,
Tim

Maybe your BIOS is using mini shell.

Add Tim.

Subject: [MinnowBoard] Missing efi shell commands

Hello,

I have a debuggable 0.80 firmware for MBMax.

The efi boots but in the shell when I type '?' to list of available commands it shows a small list compared to all the commands mentioned here http://wiki.minnowboard.org/Shell_Commands Why are not all the commands available?

I need a command that can show me the symbol table entries. I read somewhere that there is a 'mem' command for that. But that command is not in the list. Does someone know what command I can use to see the symbol table entries?

Thanks
Supriti
