I have USB boot working now. There’s no output from the kernel while it is booting but if you wait you get a login prompt. I have also ordered a small mSATA drive but as long as USB boot is working that will be OK for now. > > I have also an older bios (1/20/2016), and neither checked SD cards nor iPXE. It seems that SD and iPXE boot is only enabled with the latest BIOS versions. The on-board SD adaptor needs the sdhci kernel module; could be good to add that to our build. > > kp > >> Thanks, >> David >> >>> On 12 Aug 2016, at 23:17, kp kirchdoerfer <kap...@users.sourceforge.net> >>> wrote: >>> >>> Hi David; >>> >>> Am Freitag, 12.
