**Installation instructions**
|
|
=====================================================================================================================
|
|
|
|
Updating the UEFI firmware requires writing a bootable image to a USB drive on a separate machine.
|
|
Make sure you have an empty or unused USB drive before starting this procedure.
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
All data on the USB drive will be overwritten. Make sure you have no important data on there.
|
|
As a general warning, following this procedure is on your own risk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Step 1**
|
|
|
|
Download the right file depending on your platform from the section above. For Windows,
|
|
an installer is provided. For Linux, an image is provided.
|
|
|
|
**Step 2**
|
|
|
|
|
|
Optionally verify the SHA256 checksum.
|
|
|
|
**Step 3**
|
|
|
|
Insert the USB drive. For Windows, unzip and start the installer executable and follow the instructions.
|
|
When prompted for a drive select the USB drive.
|
|
|
|
|
|
For Linux, decompress the image and write the image to the USB drive::
|
|
|
|
cd /<directory where image is located>
|
|
bzip2 -d <image name>.bz2
|
|
sudo dd if=./<image name>.img of=/dev/<drivename> bs=1024k
|
|
|
|
Where *image name* refers to the downloaded image, and *drivename* refers to the USB drive.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
When selecting a drive on Linux, make sure you select the *entire* drive, not a single partition
|
|
(e.g. */dev/sdb*, not */dev/sdb1*)
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Step 4**
|
|
|
|
If all went well and no errors occurred, safely remove the USB drive from the computer and plug it into
|
|
the appliance.
|
|
|
|
**Step 5**
|
|
|
|
Connect to the appliance using a :ref:`serial` connection. Open a terminal to the relevant COM port.
|
|
|
|
**Step 6**
|
|
|
|
Boot the appliance and enter the BIOS by pressing Escape. The current BIOS version (suffix) should show up.
|
|
Make note of it so you can compare it to the new version to verify everything went well.
|
|
|
|
**Step 7**
|
|
|
|
Go to Setup Utility --> AMD CBS --> FCH Common Options --> UART Configuration Options --> UART 0 Legacy Options.
|
|
Make sure this setting is set to **Disabled**. This is explained in :ref:`legacy_uart`.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Should your serial terminal highlight a BIOS option selection in such a way that it is unreadable, for
|
|
the A20 appliance it's the very first option in the UART Configuration Options menu screen.
|
|
|
|
**Step 8**
|
|
|
|
Select **Boot manager** and boot the USB drive. The UEFI shell will take over and execute the necessary BIOS update.
|
|
If the update is complete, the machine will power off. **Do NOT do anything until the machine has shutdown.**
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Should the USB drive not show up, something went wrong during writing. The newly created FAT32 partition
|
|
should be the very first block on the drive. Inspect the drive on a different machine to check the layout.
|
|
|
|
**Step 9**
|
|
|
|
Reboot the machine and check the new BIOS version in either the boot log or the BIOS itself.
