Unsolved 12th gen/12900K issues and some SOLUTIONS/workarounds I found


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Have any of you managed to get unraid to boot into GUI on the integrated graphics while leaving the dedicated GPU alone?

 

I'm new to unraid, decided to go with 12th gen, presumably where most of the issues originate from. (the motherboard is also sus)

 

First of all, posting the setup so people could draw connections when debugging:

Unraid: 6.9.2

Motherboard: gigabyte z690 aorus pro DDR5

CPU: 12900K

GPU: ROG strix RTX3080

RAM: Kingston fury DDR5 4800MHz

Flash: Kingston datatraveler 16GB (pretty old) (samsung BAR plus 32GB did not work, unless I enable UEFI when flashing, might be a formatting issue??)

Notes: onboard intel 2.5Gbe does NOT work, apparently a linux kernel issue, as mentioned in other posts; generic USB ethernet adapters work for now.

 

Here is "a" workflow I have figured out, can finally run VMs now, but still don't have anything on the integrated GPU displayport output!

After this point you'll never see your BIOS again;

UNLESS, you shutdown, unplug your dGPU and boot, then the mobo will attempt to boot and fail (for me the POST code runs until it hits d6 and instantly turns off and on again, and succeeds on this subsequent run, and if you then go into BIOS the CSM is now disabled), automatically disables CSM, and you can see your BIOS again on iGPU output.

 

Alsooooo, the GUI mode do not seem to work when the flash is working in UEFI? (loading up GUI mode will result in blank screen with a single underscore blinking at the top left, and any additional text is only shown when a shutdown is initiated)

 

The thing is a monster though, very pleased with the tests on a windows 10 VM. Might have to make a video on this, so many weird things to cover. Early adopter problems.

 

Best,

Alex
