CCTK 2.2.1 won't actually change boot order on 780s
CCTK 2.2.1 won't actually change boot order on 780s
cctk.exe bootorder --sequence=floppy,hdd,usbdev,cdrom,embnic --valsetuppwd=%CURRENTBIOSPASSWORD%
returns
bootorder
DeviceStatus DeviceNumber DeviceType Shortform DeviceDescription
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Enabled 0 Floppy Disk floppy Onboard or USB Floppy Drive
Enabled 1 Hard Disk hdd.1 Onboard SATA Hard Drive
Enabled 6 USB device usbdev USB Device
Enabled 4 CDRom cdrom Onboard or USB CD-ROM Drive
Enabled 5 Embedded NIC embnic Onboard Network Controller
Enabled 2 Hard Disk hdd.2 Hard Disk
Enabled 3 Hard Disk hdd.3 Hard Disk
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
You can use DeviceNumber or shortform to set the boot order.
Example1: cctk bootorder --sequence=2,1,3 --disabledevice=1 --enabledevice=2,3
Example2: cctk bootorder --sequence=cdrom,hdd.2,hdd.1 --disabledevice=hdd.2 --enabledevice=cdrom,hdd.1
In file operation, same command can write like bootorder=+cdrom,-hdd.2,+hdd.1
But doesn't actually change the order in the BIOS (A13). Same line works on other models.

Hi St Jude Dude,
This certainly looks like a BIOS issue. We will check on this and take it to BIOS team.

you can't use "sequence=floppy,hdd,usbdev,cdrom,embnic"... you have to use something like "sequence=0,1,2,3,4,5,6". yeah it's pretty lame.

Good to see that you have found a solution for this. Not sure why BIOS is classifying the hdd as hdd.2. Do you have 2 hdds in the system?
