1. mod bios
2. copy .EFI file to UEFI boot partition (linux in this case)
3. add driver in UEFI shell (bcfg driver add.... )
4. Boot linux (UEFI install) as usual
No windows on any of my uCoded machines at the moment...
I haven't downloaded yet, but if they are booting in EFI mode, you would:
1. mod the bios as required for your system to remove the ucode
2. add the .EFI desired it to the EFI folder
3. (do this once)
a. boot into an efi shell (shellx64.efi or equivalent)
b. bcfg driver add 0 fsN:\EFI\your.efi...
Keep in mind with a BW CPU you are making things even more difficult as the BIOS flashed on the MB presently may or may not support BW. There are quite a lot of x99 and xeon boards out there with BIOS that pre-date BW and corresponding support.
I had to flash my Z10PE, my EP2C, my Taichi and...
Yeah, I honestly have no idea if the 4xxx CPUs are even expected to work in X99? Given the additional pin assignments to QPI it seems possible that bios would not be enough, but that if so, modding the bios to support that would not be a trivial (or even necessarily possible, depending on your...
Well, that's terrible...
You got me curious about C3.
1. Any setup that does not have C0/C1 as the package C-state limit (the first selection) hangs
- even if C6 is disabled
2. I enabled C3 in addition to that. no change in behavior. 3200 - all core
3. CoD to "on" from "auto" decreased my...
If that's the option in the UEFI bios that searches the local file systems and comes up with a list of images to load, then yes. I forget who calls what option what name... It found the modified 2.13b (as it did with the modified 2.1) and let me select and flash it in without complaint...
d16 vs d8:
1. ram
d16 has more dimm slots, but unless you buy the much, much more expensive LRDIMMS, you won't be able to use them without losing performance. RDIMMS allow only 1 dimm per channel (4 dimms per socket) before DDR4 clock rate is lowered.
So, unless you already have or have easy...
ok... now we're cooking with gas... 2.13b bios ran through UBU.bat without issue. Manually set memory to 2133 and now the EP2C612-WS is edging out the Z10PE slightly... < a few % in a real 18-core application.
The EPC2612 is still stopping hard at 3.2GHz all-core, but its performance on 18...
Fixed my CSM issues and the on-board video (4G didn't seem to matter, but I fiddled around with Legacy vs UEFI (set UEFI only and storage = uefi and vga = legacy) I must admit on the surface the settings didn't make sense (to have UEFI only, but then vga = legacy), but hey... it works!
Now...
hmmm... usually don't need it, but I suppose if they put the vga chip above 4G? That would be an odd choice, but possible... I'll try that and I need to move the file to the right place to send it to you, but I'll do that shortly. Thanks.
I just used UBU.bat on 2.1. No ch341a required, though I did confirm I could use it on the taichi.
Right this moment I'm having issues with CSM. This board (like many) is somewhat/strangely random as to whether it boots in UEFI of legacy mode mode, so naturally I disabled CSM... Asmedia VGA...
