 Posted: Fri Dec 16, 2022 4:28 pm Post subject: installation on nvme |
 |
|
Today I have received the new PC with nvme disk. and MB Z690-P D4. I have connected ssd SATA3 with working Gentoo.
But when started BIOS, I am not able to boot from SATA. The new PC was probably tested under Win11, because bios offers
Windows boot manager.
How could I boot Gentoo from SATA?
If I want make the new partitions on nvme disk can I use fdisk? |

Hi
| Code: |
How could I boot Gentoo from SATA?
|
You need to chroot into your old Gentoo system then
1.Reinstall grub
2.Update initramfs.
3.Update grub.
Plz before that edit your fstab and /etc/default/grub and use UUID instead of plain partition naming.

I prefer gdisk,as it is more suitable for gpt and uefi.
Basically you will need to create a partitioning scheme similar to your sata disk and use rsync to copy.
Again you will need to chroot into the new system and perform the above 3 steps.

apiaio,
Is secureboot off?
Windows will have been installed with it on and will not boot without it.
Your old Gentoo will want secure boot off.
Its possible to install Gentoo to use secure boot too, if you want a dual boot with windows system but you can't start for your old Gentoo that way.

Secure boot offers:
Secure Boot state ......................... User
OS Type .......................... Other OS
or .............................Window UEFI mode
Secure Boot mode ..................................Standart
or .................................Custom
Edit: any combination doesnt work |

My old Gentoo boots from bios. On the nvme disk is EFI Windows Boot Manager.
When I want to delete MBR I use | Code: | | dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=446 count=1 |
Is it possible erase efi partition? Or will I have to use efi in the future? |

apiaio,
If your BIOS has an EFI/BIOS option, choose BIOS. It may be called Legacy or Compatibility mode.
Windows won't boot like that but Gentoo might.
Here's the history.
When EFI was new, it was buggy and difficult to use, so everyone switched to BIOS mode.
Over the years EFI has got better - Windows demands it and the BIOS mode has become buggy and difficult to use. Its not well used any more.
If you boot your Gentoo in BIOS mode, you cannot complete an EFI mode install as its not possible to update the EFI vars unless you boot in EFI mode.
You should use EFI mode if you can as BIOS mode is a dead end.
Your example of BIOS mode may be too buggy to boot your Gentoo.
You can still read and chroot into your old Gentoo, regardless of how you boot.
| Code: | | dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=446 count=1 |
erases the BIOS boot sector but leaves the MSDOS partition table intact.
There is no real equivalent in the EFI world as the EFI firmware reads the VFAT partition and loads an EFI compatible program from the filesystem.
I suppose the equivalent is to remove or rename all the files in the EFI directory on the VFAT partition that have names ending in .efi.
Don't do that until you have added another of your own or the EFI firmware will be very unhappy.
What do you want to do with the old Gentoo in the new system?

Finely I have successfully booted in EFI mode.
| Quote: | | What do you want to do with the old Gentoo in the new system? |
I want use it like on the old PC. I am able now to boot it. Of course I have problems with
some drivers.Especially sound and ethernet
| Code: | 00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Device 7ad0 (rev 11)
05:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8125 2.5GbE Controller (rev 05) |
Any help appreciated. |

This should be Device drivers -> Network device support -> Ethernet driver support there look for Realtek devices. There should be an entry which has 8125 in it.

And this one might be colliding with HDMI.
Like in: not be a system default, so you're not using it even though it works.
You can check it with aplay -l. I'd expect it to be listed there with an index higher than 0 |

apiaio,
You probably have several sound cards now.
| Code: | | 00:1f.3 Audio device: Intel Corporation Device 7ad0 (rev 11) |
looks like the one on the motherboard as it has subfunction=3
There is probably a HDA device on the video card too. It will use the same driver.
The default sound card is card 0.
That's the one with the lowest PCI ID, here the PCI ID is 00:1f.3
My system has | Code: | $ lspci -nnk | grep -A2 -i audio
0c:00.1 Audio device [0403]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Navi 21/23 HDMI/DP Audio Controller [1002:ab28]
Subsystem: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Navi 21/23 HDMI/DP Audio Controller [1002:ab28]
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel
--
0e:00.4 Audio device [0403]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD] Starship/Matisse HD Audio Controller [1022:1487]
Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. Device [1043:87c4]
Kernel driver in use: snd_hda_intel |
so the video card is the default sound card.

Thanks to all of you,
everything works now. I have changed | Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="radeon radeonsi" |
to | Code: | | VIDEO_CARDS="intel" |
, emerged world with --changed-use
enabled NVME in kernel. Haven't I forgotten something?
And one more question. I did not make the new Gentoo installation for a long time. I have | Code: | cat /etc/conf.d/net
config_enp5s0=("192.168.1.4 brd 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0")
routes_enp5s0=( "default via 192.168.1.1")
|
But I do not have connection after reboot, I have to do | Code: | ifconfig enp5s0 192.168.1.4 broadcast 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
|
Why? |

apiaio,
Does your new install have the net.enp5s0 symlink in /etc/init.d/ ?
Is net.enp5s0 in the default runlevel ?

Yes, There was interface name of the old system.

apiaio,
Has the interface name changed?
With udev 'persistent' names, its PCIe slot and function dependent. So it will change for motherboard to motherboard.
What does show.

apiaio,
That's all in order.
| Code: | config_enp5s0=("192.168.1.4 brd 192.168.1.255 netmask 255.255.255.0")
routes_enp5s0=( "default via 192.168.1.1") |
The parenthesises' the "()" tave not ben required for a long time but I doubt that its that.

Hallo again
.
Does exist any tutorial "How to EFI dualboot with Windows "? Gentoo is installed.
Up to now I have been using BIOS only. |

Unfortunately my BIOS doesn't offer possibility to disable secureboot. See above.
Is possible to overwrite Windows EFI partition using GRUB? |

apiaio,
That will destroy Windows.
To dual boot with WIndows, your Gentoo needs to play by its rules.
Gentoo must use EFI.
If you really can't disable secure boot. Rare unless you have an arm system, Gentoo needs to use secure boot too.
Don't even think about removing the existing secure boot keys.
Unless you can turn off secure boot, your motherboard will be 'bricked'.
The bad news is that unless your Gentoo is installed using a GPT partition table now, moving to GPT (secure boot or not) is tricky, without destroying the Gentoo install.
There are two problems. The start of the userspace on the install and making space for the backup GPT at the end of the volume.
What exact motherboard do you have - we need to read the manual?
Which version of Windows do you want to dual boot with?
Do you have a TPM module?
If so, is it used and what version?

- MB Asus Prime Z690-P D4
- Win10 Pro
- I dont think that I have TMP. AFAIK only Win11 need TMP.
Methods described in above mentioned wiki pages seems to be too complicated and dangerous.
I read, than UBUNTU and Mint can boot in secure mode. So I installed Mint and now I am booting with Mint.

|
I thing that I am ready to install Windows. After that I will recovery (update) Mint's GRUB.
For safety's sake I have made backup of Gentoo on another volume. |
