Below is my BIOS setup, your motherboard may have a different name for the options, so you'll need to adapt it with your hardware.
|
||||
Common settings:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"Devices": {
|
||||
"Network Setup": {
|
||||
"PXE IPv4": true,
|
||||
"PXE IPv6": false
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
"Advanced": {
|
||||
"CPU Setup": {
|
||||
"VT-d": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
"Power": {
|
||||
"Automatic Power On": {
|
||||
"WoL": "Automatic"
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
"Security": {
|
||||
"Secure Boot": false
|
||||
},
|
||||
"Startup": {
|
||||
"CSM": false
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
- Enable Wake-on-LAN (WoL) and network boot
|
||||
- Use UEFI mode and disable CSM (legacy) mode
|
||||
- Disable secure boot
|
||||
|
||||
Boot order options (select one, each has their pros and cons):
|
||||
|
||||
1. Only boot from the network if no operating system found: works on most hardware but you need to manually wipe your hard drive or delete the existing boot record for the current OS
|
||||
2. Prefer booting from the network if turned on via WoL: more convenience but your BIOS must support it, and you must test it throughly to ensure you don't accidentally wipe your servers
|
||||
|
||||
Below is my BIOS setup for reference. Your motherboard may have a different name for the options, so you'll need to adapt it to your hardware.
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
Devices:
|
||||
NetworkSetup:
|
||||
PXEIPv4: true
|
||||
PXEIPv6: false
|
||||
Advanced:
|
||||
CPUSetup:
|
||||
VT-d: true
|
||||
Power:
|
||||
AutomaticPowerOn:
|
||||
WoL: Automatic # Use network boot if Wake-on-LAN
|
||||
Security:
|
||||
SecureBoot: false
|
||||
Startup:
|
||||
CSM: false
|
||||
```
