It's pretty obvious to me that the IdeMode.c has an issue. I'm not sure where it comes from yet though. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ edk2-devel mailing list edk2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/edk2-devel
