What are the correct HD/Boot BIOS settings (via IPMI) for Antsle One XD Pro?
Hi -- I had a power outage and my Antsle One XD Pro did not recover. I logged in via IPMI and am seeing:
CLIENT MAC ADDR: [My Mac Addr]
CLIENT IP: 0.0.0.0 MASK: 0.0.0.0 DHCP IP: 0.0.0.0
PXE-E7B: Missing MTFTP server IP address
PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent
Followed by the (dreaded)
Reboot and Select proper Boot Device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot Device and press a key
I have no way to know if the SSD is bad/corrupt, and suspect it MIGHT be a misconfigured/fully reset BIOs (the System Date is back to 2018, same as the BIOS build date). I tried searching the documentation but I'm not sure what the proper BIOS setting/config is for my device.
I do see the 2x500GB SSDs in the SATA configuration, and I'm not sure if they're supposed to be SATA/AHCI or RAID. I have changed this a bit to see if I can get it to work, but it feels like a lot of wasted effort in trial-and-error.
Landing the plane...Does anyone have either documentation on the correct BIOS settings and/or willing to share their own?
Thanks in advance.
Hi @brandonwolf
I've got an older antsle One but the configuration will be similar.
You can follow steps below:
Here are some steps to diagnose the boot issue:
1) After turning on the antsle, keep tapping [F11] to get into the Boot Menu.
2) You can try choose another Boot option.
3) If this works, you can reboot your antsle. Keep tapping [F11] to get back into Boot Menu.
4) You can navigate to Enter Setup.
5) Then navigate to Boot menu. Choose the correct drive.
6) Then navigate to Save & Exit --> Save Changes and Exit --> Yes.
You can view the screenshots below as reference. Your configuration may be different.
I'm hoping that you find that helpful.

When I added some external drives (for an external zpool), my antsle one xd (bought in 2019) had problems booting.
I saved these screenshots from the BIOS settings in case it happened again.
I didn't save the screen you're mentioning, but I do remember the 2 SSDs did not say RAID.
Maybe they'll help.

Sorry to add to old thread, but I had a similar situation after power loss, AntsleXD wouldn't start. It appears the onboard battery has failed and it lost its configuration.
I didn't note which boot device I chose, but it worked. Can Antlse staff confirm what is the correct setup for Boot Mode and order of Boot Devices so I can document for the next time this occurs?
Alternatively, someone smarter than me tell me a linux command to discover which device was booted that is currently running?

You can enter BIOS, set boot mode to UEFI, disable PXE boot, set SATA mode to AHCI, and ensure your SSD is the first boot device.
