Re: Bay-trail motherboards
When I get my Gigabyte J1900 board I am happy to try booting it with ESXi off USB, PXE or hard drive. I already tried the GB GA-J1900-D3V card (then returned it), that's why I was asking for the Asrock one. For the Atom boards I tried (right now I'm using a D2700MUD) the results were quite various,...

Re: Bay-trail motherboards
Can someone with an Asrock Q1900* test if ESXi 5.5 boots correctly? It is noot needed to install it on the hard drive, it can be booted directly from USB. Thanks in advance, I can give all the support needed, if needed just pm me.

Re: new bios for Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V baytrail-D board
OK, I managed to install F3C using an usb formatted flash card, I used Rufus with the defailt settings, with the embedded FreeDos option. I also esperienced a Recovery Flash from Dual Bios before trying Rufus, I don't know if it can be related. I have to say that the F3C BIOS seems quite stable, it ...

Re: new bios for Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V baytrail-D board
I'll post an update tomorrow, my last chance is finding a sata optical drive to boot an iso. can you not set the BIOS to legacy mode? I can (and I did), but PXE is only available using UEFI (at least, the "Network Stack" description in the BIOS is "enable UEFI PXE boot support"), so it is a no go.

Re: new bios for Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V baytrail-D board
All I can offer is this: https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Installation_Guide/s1-netboot-pxe-config-efi.html Thanks, but that is the "standard" pxe boot, which is not working on this board (at least, not for me, not on F1). What I'll try is (if possi...

Re: new bios for Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V baytrail-D board
does the BIOS support PXE boot? it's fairly easy to PXE boot a freedos image. It should, but does not work either :evil: Timeout (PXE-E18) when connecting to the TFTP server (which is working, tested with another client). Perhaps it is not compatible with standard PXE, (different ports?) since it i...

Re: new bios for Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V baytrail-D board
Sadly, I can't seem to boot freedos (or anything else ) from USB, I tried almost every usb flash drive I had at home (<2GB, Fat16 too). Any idea?

Re: Bay-trail motherboards
Can someone address me to the best way to boot FreeDOS on a Gigabyte w/ F1 firmware? I prepared a FAT16 2GB usb key but it does not want to boot (black screen, needs a power cycle, I'm using DVI output). I'm not even sure that DVI output is enabled during boot, I tried to boot from a SATA hard disk ...

Re: new bios for Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V baytrail-D board
Interesting, I'm still waiting for my J1900N to be dispatched but I'd gladly take a chance to test it. Do you have any changelog?
