Boot from HD in LENOVO IdeaCentre AIO

Post by edilpali »

I've got a new all-in-one PC, the Lenovo IdeaCentre AIO Gen 9.

All is working, but install on harddisk and update wtware is to do in manual mode, accessing data from an other usb card.
Is it possible to solve the problem?

Seem that the harddisk is not directly visible.
The option to install on HD is not avalable from the SD card boot.
Looking in the dev folder, sda and sda1 are not availables.
On bootstrap log, is recognized as a MMC boot.

On update, procedure stop in half, and the pc is no more usable.
I resolved accessing from usb card and coping coping the new 3 folders (boot, efi and pagkages).

I send the bootstrap log take from the web log page

Its not easy for us to differ SD from nvme HD. Is this really necessary? Why not boot from USB flash? The option to install on HD should be available from the USB flash boot.

I was trying to figure how to work it out properly.
For example, I would to introduce the network boot, but for now I was studing it.

For now, I have errors updating the system from the web interface.
I attach the log file with the error.
Is it solvable?

An idea that I've got... is it possible, perhaps in the 'paranoid survive' section, to let the user choose where to copy the system?
It could by a driver to repartition, or a partition already prepared...
It could either be usefull to create an USB flash disk...

It's only a my idea :mrgreen:
