I'm searching without success to load a bkp loader in case of boot failure.

Upgrade process willl be like:
---
mount -t msdosfs /dev/nvd0p1 /mnt
cp /mnt/efi/boot/bootx64.efi /mnt/efi/boot/bootx64.old
cp /boot/loader.efi /mnt/efi/boot/bootx64.efi
---

I can't find the right docs to load bootx64.old.
Could you tell me what you did to solve your boot?

Thanks
