BIOS settings for ONIE boot 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 x86-based targets only, particularly targets using Rangeley or Centerton CPU- based boards. ● Check the console (UART-0/1) used on the target. Connect the serial port at 115200 baud rate and check that messages display on the console. ● The log messages included in this guide are subject to change.

BIOS settings for ONIE boot
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 x86-based targets only, particularly targets using Rangeley or Centerton CPU-
based boards.
Check the console (
UART-0/1
) used on the target. Connect the serial port at 115200 baud rate and check
that messages display on the console.
The log messages included in this guide are subject to change.
NOTE:
The following procedure is generic and does not list a particular target. Therefore, the ONIE images are specified
using the
<

notation. For example, the ONIE media (usb) iso image is

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
