| 05:43 | jnettlet[m]> | vpeter: not currently no. We are working on an Coreboot based UEFI bootloader for the SolidPC that would be more flexible in those regards. |
| 08:36 | vpeter> | Ok, no problem. But I have another question: how to boot uefi only? When I go to BIOS settings and then exits it boots efi. But if I reboot it boots legacy. I tried different BOM config settings and CSM support. |
| 09:15 | jnettlet[m]> | vpeter: sorry about the delay. For some reason I am not getting notifications from IRC right now. |
| 09:15 | jnettlet[m]> | regardless, do you have v38 of the BIOS? |
| 09:16 | jnettlet[m]> | we just recently made some changes for UEFI and legacy boot. There is a setting in the BIOS to only boot UEFI or Legacy, or both |
| 09:34 | vpeter> | Yes, yesterday I updated with v38 and tried different settings for boot. But for some reason it boots legacy. UEFI boots only if exists from settings. I boot from SD card and have only one entry to select which IS UEFI. Wondering what I'm doing wrong. And I'm booting LibreELEC with syslinux. |
| 10:21 | Bluerise> | jnettlet[m]: I went to v38 yesterday and now the screen won't turn on, it's all black :/ |
| 10:21 | Bluerise> | but anyway. |
| 10:22 | jnettlet[m]> | Bluerise: power off the unit completely...pull all the plugs, and then it should come on in the Bios. |
| 10:22 | Bluerise> | Did that |
| 10:22 | Bluerise> | but I can try again |
| 10:22 | jnettlet[m]> | then I recommend you reset all your BIOS settings to the BIOS defaults |
| 10:23 | jnettlet[m]> | Then you will need to short the battery to reset the BIOS to the defaults. |
| 10:24 | Bluerise> | oh |
| 10:24 | Bluerise> | It did come up. |
| 10:24 | Bluerise> | now that I connected it to HDMI |
| 10:25 | vpeter> | It is mind controlled from jnettlet :) |
| 10:25 | Bluerise> | I had a displayport monitor attached |
| 10:25 | jnettlet[m]> | both should work |
| 10:34 | Bluerise> | anyway, thanks! works. not a brick |
| 10:47 | jnettlet[m]> | So far the v38 bios is definitely the best revision so far. I can't wait to get a proper Coreboot based bootloader that works with Windows as well as Linux. All we have is Linux currently |
| 10:48 | vpeter> | jnettlet[m]: Is it already usable? I'm using only Linux :) |
| 10:49 | jnettlet[m]> | vpeter: yes I have a coreboot build that will boot Linux. However I need to update it to Intel's latest board support package |
| 10:50 | vpeter> | When there is something to use let me know. |
| 10:50 | Bluerise> | Ah. |
| 10:50 | Bluerise> | Does the coreboot build boot openbsd? ;) |
| 10:50 | jnettlet[m]> | I actually have a couple meetings regarding it next week. |
| 10:52 | jnettlet[m]> | Bluerise: I don't see any reason it wouldn't. As long as BSD has a UEFI compliant bootloader |
| 10:52 | jnettlet[m]> | with coreboot you can have any number of targets to act as second stage bootloaders |
| 12:01 | Bluerise> | yes, we do UEFI on amd64, armv7 and arm64 |
| 12:02 | Bluerise> | especially on ARM we don't do non-UEFI anymore. |
