For example, one could boot to the netboot.xyz server which hosts multiple Operating Systems (OS) at. This feature allows the user to iPXE boot the Vault over the network to a default Protectli site, or to specify a site. These are options built into the coreboot BIOS and not dependent on a physical storage device.īeginning with release v1.0.15 of coreboot for the VP2410, a Netbooting feature has been added to the BIOS. Other options are iPXE Network Boot and UEFI Shell.It will not change unless the bootable devices change. The boot order of the discovered bootable devices can be manually set by the user.If the USB is reinserted on a subsequent boot, it will be added to the end of the list.If a USB is removed it will be removed from the list.If there is a bootable USB drive inserted at the time of boot, it would also be displayed in the boot list.If an Operating System pre-installed with an EFI drive, but a label has not been created, one must boot from the drive, then the BIOS creates a “label” to point to the boot file system.It boots from “filename.efi” where “filename” is typically “shim” or “grub”. When an Operating System is installed with an EFI drive, the BIOS creates a “label” to point to the boot file system.There is eMMC storage on the Vault Pro, but unless there is a bootable partition, it will not be displayed on the list.A bootable drive, such as a new M.2 SATA or NVMe, is not listed in the boot list until there is a bootable partition on the drive.coreboot will only list the bootable devices found at boot.A predefined boot order of possible devices is not supported in Vault Pro coreboot.The current implementation of coreboot UEFI for the Vault Pro behaves differently than previous Vaults.Information for the coreboot security features can be found at:Ĭoreboot Security Features Boot Order and Options More information regarding the specific platforms can be found at: The screenshots in this document are from the VP2410. There are currently a VP2400 4 port series and a VP4600 6 port series. The purpose of this article is to document the coreboot UEFI menu and describe the expected behavior. The coreboot UEFI BIOS menu is more extensive and has different behavior than coreboot on other Protectli Vaults.
The original coreboot menu only allowed selecting the Boot Device/Method or, in some cases, running a MemTest. coreboot for the Vault Pro has been implemented via UEFI rather than legacy BIOS method. The Vault Pro series is characterized by implementation of newer CPUs, DDR4 memory in all models, Intel I210/211 Ethernet NICs, M.2 SATA/NVMe Storage, Display Port, USB C with Display Port, Micro USB console port, support for M.2 PCIe WiFI modules and discrete Trusted Platform Modules (dTPM).
