In November-December of 2020 (2+ years ago) I purchased an IPFire Mini Appliance (4 NICs, WiFi, 4GB, AMD GX-412TC @ 1GHz), and did not set it up.
Now (January 2023), I am trying to do the initial setup.
SeaBIOS tells me (repeated every 60 seconds) :
Booting from Hard Disk...
Boot failed: not a bootable disk
When I press F10, to access the boot menu, I see:
Select boot device:
-
AHCI/0: SATA SSD ATA-11 Hard-Disk (15272 MiBytes)
-
Payload [setup]
-
Payload [memtest]
Choice 3 runs the memtest utility, choice 2 runs the BIOS setup page.
Choice 1 returns to the “Boot failed: not a bootable disk” loop.
I have the tools to open the case, and could connect the disk to a Ubuntu system, but I’d rather not.
