Hello everyone, As I've wrote in url[1], I recently got a Gigabyte Mp30-AR0 (rev 1.1) motherboard from a online second-hand market.
Thanks to those helpful Linux enthusiasms, I'm now clear that I should firstly find a way to turn the motherboard from U-Boot mode to UEFI mode. And I saw a discuss thread from this mailing-list(url[2]), especially messages, as url[3] to [6].
I do not want to write UEFI firmware into onboard flash or EEPROM. Instead, I wish I could put the firmware just in a USB-storage or SD card, so that the original on-board U-Boot and build-in OpenLinux. So I would like to boot as Gordan Bobic and Michael Howard had discussed: (Also referring to url[4], [5] and [6].) 1) u-boot (on-board) 2) UEFI (wherever u-boot can fetch it from) 3) grub (off the UEFI FAT partition on the target disk) 4) Kernel (/boot partition)
However, I couldn't find out how to set U-Boot to boot as above.
One another problem is that, I couldn't get access to url[9], which is mentioned in url[3], [7] and [8].
Thank you for your generous help in advance. Also please pardon my not reply on time because I couldn't apply your advises into use immediately.
BTW: Please tell me if there is any need tool like RS232-to-USB converter etc.
