Description

See attached screenshot. This was an ISO redirect erase install using the BIOS boot method on z35ref-a.sjlab1.ixsystems.com (IPMI is on https://10.212.3.4).

z35ref is sadly dead in the water until we fix this.
--------

Need to make the same change to FN9.

If we've not chosen EFI, then set BOOTMODE to BIOS. Else wackiness. Ticket: #17900

Oops, I should have asked for review before I checked it into master. Kris can you review?

Branch FIX-17900, but in master as c492ebdbb80ce16fa255955d17dca15f60543289

I think this needs to go into the next update, since it'll make certain systems non-installable.

#3 Updated by William Grzybowski about 3 years ago

I am not kris, but this looks strange

ask boot method, and then set BOOTMODE to efi in both branches of the if statement?

         if ask_boot_method
         then
           BOOTMODE="efi" 
+       else
+         BOOTMODE="efi" 
         fi

Yea, that does look wack. Shouldn't it be :

if ask_boot_method
         then
           BOOTMODE="efi" 
+       else
+         BOOTMODE="bios" 
         fi

#5 Avatar?id=14398&size=24x24 Updated by Kris Moore about 3 years ago

  • Target version changed from 9.10.1-U2 to 9.10.2
  • Seen in changed from 9.10.1-U1 to N/A

The underlying changes hadn't made it into 9.10.1, slated for 9.10.2 BTW
