on LinuxTag 2014 the OpenMandriva project [1] gave away USB flash storage devices with OpenMandriva installed for live booting. Testing it out on the ASRock E350M1 with coreboot and SeaBIOS payload it was not detected by SeaBIOS, meaning pressing F12 it was not listed in the boot options.
Rebooting the system by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del the USB device was recognized by SeaBIOS and listed in the boot menu.
I am still able to reproduce this with SeaBIOS build from master. Please find the coreboot and SeaBIOS logs attached.
Thanks. At first glance this looks like it could be a quirk of the particular flash drive.
That might be. As a side note, enabling serial console in coreboot and SeaBIOS causes the devices to always be detected. With serial console the boot takes longer, as the messages need to be transmitted, so it could be a timing issue.
Can you apply the patch below, set the SeaBIOS debug level to 3, and report the results of both the working/not-working cases?
I forgot to lower the debug level to 3, so it is still at 8. Sorry. I hope that is still fine. If not, I’ll redo the tests.
Thanks,
Paul
