hey Andres, The BIOS_Boot_Type and Boot_Device fields are mutually exclusive. If a system supports both EFI and Legacy mode, BIOS_Boot_Type allows you to choose between them. Boot_Device only works when booting in Legacy mode - See section 28.13 of the IPMI Spec. It has no effect in EFI mode for any implementation I've seen. - dann -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1642298 Title: UEFI Xenial install sets computer to boot from hard disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/curtin/+bug/1642298/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
