CS2 bios - hd boot not work
CS2 bios - hd boot not work
I had to format a hard disk of an CS2, for this I changed the boot option (first Ethetnet)... all worked fine, but now I can´t modify the boot option, the bios do not offer the hard disk like an valid boot option. ...
Really, the option "hard disk" appear, but with this word "hard disk", not with a description of the disk (e.g. "Hitachi 250...") and if I select it does not save the change.
Can somebody help me?

Did you guys reinstall from scratch ?
The upgrade from R11.2 to 12.2 requires a new partition size

Re: CS2 bios - hd boot not work
yes....complete reinstallation using PC Installer that came with 12.2 software (SOT doesnt seem to work at all)....
Even tried installing R11.2 back which also completed successfully but for some unknown reason, CS2 doesnt boot thru HDD, it always look for Network boot... also, in BIOS, instead of showing complete details of HDD, it just read "Hard Drive"

Re: CS2 bios - hd boot not work
what happened when you used SOT ? Does it say the install was successful ?

If you have working CS-2 with working HD try to mount this working HD on faulty CS and check whether it boots.
If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck.

Re: CS2 bios - hd boot not work
it is better to give the grubboot ETHER command form root from a working HDD and then load the new release software using PC installer after the reboot of the HDD.
the changing HDD option from BIOS works during the OS loading time, after that it does not work.

Re: CS2 bios - hd boot not work
Hi Mustafa, Thank you for your response but i still think there should be a way without using the grubboot ETHER, because suppose you have a new HDD without software, this should load directly using PC Installer, but in my case, after loading the software, it is not booting from the HDD. When i look at the advanced options in Bios IDE settings, i can see the model of the HDD but this is not present at the Bios Boot options. At the Bios boot option 1 is only showing as hard disk but no HDD model. I tend to think the CS-2 is not recognizing the HDD as a boot option. Is there a way of Flashing the Bios without using the Omnipcx Enterprise Cs Software? Maybe from USB?
