Hi there guys !
Long time lurker and actual user of nvOC, i need help converting my 21 1080Ti's into rigs with 3 cards using HP DC7900 Small Form Factor pc's as the base for the rigs.
My issue is that although i can boot basically any live distro using a USB stick, i can't boot no matter what nvOC from a usb stick.
Does nvOC needs a UEFI compatible BIOS in order to be booted by older machines ?
Can i convert the image to be non-GPT and hence bootable on older machines ?
Thanks a lot for your support !
There may be a bios setting related to Secure Boot or TPM; changing this setting or settings may allow boot.
If that doesn't work I would try this:
Image a live boot ubuntu USB. Then boot from a different linux build. Open gparted. Copy the primary nvOC partition over the primary partition on the live boot USB. If the live boot primary partition is smaller than 16gb, extend it first then copy over the primary nvOC partition.
