UEFI Boot XG Firewall 18.0 GA-Build379

Martin Gross

Hello,

I have ASRock J4105B-ITX board with PCIE 4Port NIC, and now I am not able to run SW SFOS 18.0 GA-Build379. Board supports only UEFI boot. The installation proceeds properly, but after a restart the system does not boot from the disk.

I tried the same version on an old HW (Celeron 1037U with dual NIC) switched to UEFI Only mode with the same result.

If I switch 1037U to Legacy boot only, it boots normaly afrer reinstallation in legacy mode. 

Is the problem only on the last Build?

I tried to download another build of v18 (339 and 354), but download link of iso file ends on other page - https://community.sophos.com/kb/en-us/135412

Is it possible to download iso build 354 somewhere?

 

Thank you

    Same problem is on v18 MR-1-Build396, after fresh install is EFI partition empty.

    I tried to install a new grub from Ubuntu Live 20.04, but ending with error "kernel doesn`t support EFI handover". The problem was a new grub on Ubuntu. After installing the EFI loader from Ubuntu18.04 it already works fine.

    Solution:

    1) Install SFOS

    2) Boot from USB Flash Ubuntu Live 18.04

    3) Open terminal and write:

       sudo apt install grub-efi-amd64-bin
       sudo mount /dev/sda1 /boot
       sudo mkdir /boot/efi
       sudo mount /dev/sda2 /boot/efi
       sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi/

    4) reboot
