As I said, the machine arrived with Xubuntu already set up, so I have just been using it. I have not tried to get at the BIOS before today.Surprisingly that wasn't as helpful as it usually is... Can you also run: ls /sys/firmware/efi Let me know what it says. If you get any results at all, you're in UEFI mode (which already looks 99% probable). Secureboot is *probably* off. Should have given you a better dmidecode string as well, apologies: sudo dmidecode --string baseboard-product-name That'll tell me the actual mobo type, rather than just the firmware strings. Cheersnot very helpful .. ls: cannot access '/sys/firmware/efi': No such file or directory And the next one, very terse Z170 Extreme4 Thanks, Neil
Further to this message, I tried the following sudo efibootmgr efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system. Is that to be expected? Neil -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG https://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
