Luca_S 8 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 This BIOS allows you to choose the boot device by either using the arrow keys or clicking/touching the monitor. When using the keyboard use Enter to boot, when using clicking/touching click an unselected entry to select it, click a selected entry to boot it. If there is only one bootable medium, that medium is autobooted. The default selected option is the last booted device. This supports booting from filesystems, using /init.lua as an entry point or from drives(HDDs or Floppys in unmanaged mode), by loading code from the first sector until the first \0 character appears as lua code. (From what I've seen unmanaged drives are mostly ignored in OC, which is kinda sad.)

The default Lua bios boots by running init.lua on a filesystem. It first tries to boot from the filesystem which address is stored in the EEPROM data. If it can't find init.lua on that file system or init.lua code causes errors while being loaded it goes through all filesystems and boots the first one it can find with /init.lua on it Ta©ti Tac0Z 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry for some reason I didn't get any notification of your reply. What are you using to shutdown your computer? Using the shutdown program of OpenOS works perfectly fine.

Totoro 28 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Really handy and neat looking tool. Took it for one of my projects (with the license included, of course). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
