Oracle X4 series User Manual

Setting Up and Configuring BIOS
This section describes how to use the BIOS Setup Utility on your system, and provides
guidelines and instructions for selecting Legacy BIOS Boot Mode or UEFI Boot Mode. It
includes:
■
“BIOS Setup Utility” on page 189
■
“Legacy BIOS Boot Mode and UEFI Boot Mode” on page 196
Your system is equipped with Unified Extensible Firmware Interface-compatible BIOS (UEFI
BIOS), which avoids many of the limitations of legacy BIOS. However some operating systems
cannot boot in UEFI Boot Mode, so UEFI BIOS provides the ability to select boot modes. The
default is Legacy BIOS Boot Mode.
See your server documentation for more details about the BIOS Setup Utility.
