Install ONIE from BIOS

Install ONIE from the BIOS using the media (usb) boot—the ONIE installer USB.

Pre-requisites

The BIOS running on your system must meet the following requirements:

• Allows a change to the boot order so the system can boot from media (USB).

• Allows a baud-rate change. This feature is optional; you do not need it if your BIOS is running at 115200 baud rate. The default baud

rate for ONIE is 115200.

CAUTION:

• These procedures are for Intel x86-based targets only.

• Check the console (UART-0/1) used on the target. Connect the serial port at 115200 baud rate and check that

message display on the console.

• The log messages in this guide are subject to change.

NOTE: The following procedure is generic and does not list a particular target. The ONIE images are specified using the

<platform>_<cpu> notation. For example, the ONIE media (usb) iso image is onie-recovery-x86_64-

dell_<platform>_<cpu>-r0.iso.

ONIE UEFI-based installation using USB

The following steps describe how to create a bootable unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI) ONIE-based USB to install ONIE using

Embed mode:

To install ONIE UEFI on your system, use any existing ONIE-based system to make an ONIE UEFI-based bootable USB. To make a

bootable USB, use the ONIE ISO file.

1. Boot the ONIE target in ONIE Rescue mode.

Use ONIE Rescue mode to make the ONIE UEFI-bootable USB.

To select which entry is selected, use the up and down arrow keys. Press Enter to select an operating software-selected OS or enter

e to edit the commands before booting. Enter c for a command line. The selected entry, displaying *, runs automatically in the

operating system.
