Sptz87 Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 Apologies for yet another support thread but I'm afraid this is a more pressing issue. I flashed my Gigabyte's B550i bios to the latest due to security patches etc, all went smoothly, reconfigured everything again and when trying to boot it doesn't move past the POST image / motherboard logo. So I assumed this might be secure boot. When I first setup unraid I had to go to Secure Boot options, change to Custom, "Enroll EFI image" and select the "bootx64.efi" (something like that) in the flash drive under EFI > boot. So I did that and same issue, doesn't move past the post image. I tried resetting secure boot, using just Standard / factory keys but upon reboot that takes straight into the BIOS with pop-up messages stating something like "Invalid keys. Please change them" or something alike. Does anyone have any idea what I can do? Is it even possible that due to a bios update the keys in unraid for secure boot don't work because it detects as a new PC?? Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 As far as I know Unraid does not support Secure Boot so it needs to be disabled at the BIOS level. Quote Link to comment

I've been using it since I first set it up though. As I said, I had to "Enroll EFI image" from the .efi file under EFI>boot. It worked with no issues. Until now after the BIOS update Quote Link to comment
Sptz87 Posted February 19 Author Share Posted February 19 I just attempted enabling CSM which removes secure boot, same thing. Hangs in splash screen. Quote Link to comment

Sptz87 Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 I'm going to do a good old reset cmos and see if that does anything. If not Im gonna flash my Samsung fit plus with a fresh copy of unraid and see if it boots at all. Still think this shouldn't be necessary, I'm 100% sure it's not a bios setting as it's literally a carbon copy of what I had before updating. Quote Link to comment
Sptz87 Posted February 20 Author Share Posted February 20 Update: Tried CMOS reset. Same thing. Hangs on splash screen. Trying to flash a brand new usb drive to see if it does anything Quote Link to comment
Solution Sptz87 Posted February 20 Author Solution Share Posted February 20 Last Update: Nothing worked. Rolled the bios back to F17. It instantly worked. Enrolled EFI Image from .efi file in EFI folder on the flash drive as usual. Instant boot... Quote Link to comment
