How to make an UEFI-bootable USB memory stick (hopefully exhaustive instructions)

2018-02-19 Thread Tinker
Hi misc@, Learning how to make an UEFI-bootable USB memory stick took too much time, like, 20 hours. I'll list the caveats below. It is simple. At the time of writing this OpenBSD 6.2 is the latest release. First, wipe the disk to lessen possible error source impact: dd if=/dev/zero of

Since posting I learned that installNN.fs which is UEFI-bootable as USB memory stick, is produced by the "${FS}:" section in this script: https://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/distrib/amd64/iso/Makefile?rev=1.19&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup Its fdisk command is "

Hi misc@, This enquiry follows after ~15 hours of tinkering with making a system UEFI-boot. While EFI is almost totally undocumented in OpenBSD's manual today, one of the few things that the documentation says is that "fdisk -igy -b 960 sdN" will format a block device to GPT

Dear misc@, The standard way to install crypto is to go with the "(S)hell" option at boot. In the MBR days it would be "fdisk -i sd0", now should be with the GPT option on so "fdisk -ig sd0". Doing this, importantly, no "EFI Sys" partition is created. Am I supposed to know how to add that one,
