I extracted the following for the last run but only 2 out of the 6 Files have somethingSo you are using files generated with this method?
ifrextractor
can extract:
Code:
Section_Volume_image_1DF36FF9-C7EA-47A3-BD5B-426C250DB776_body.vol
Section_Volume_image_3E3B6DC0-064D-4B01-9203-7836C9B498E7_body.vol
Section_Volume_image_9E21FD93-9C72-4C15-8C4B-E77F1DB2D792_body.vol
Section_Volume_image_54F7572F-1FD1-44DA-B635-0E49CAD1E4EF_body.vol
Section_Volume_image_84366C9E-CD61-4B6E-8BC7-384541382842_body.vol
Section_Volume_image_C0492C7F-75E2-487C-B2DD-000E6CF7B905_body.vol
The Script (to READ all Variables) is just parsing the File where there is aWhen I took a look at some files extracted that way that also had "ECC Enable" in them, I saw that at least these two were not correct. Read through these two text files that I quoted below. The content does not make any sense to me.
VarStoreId
and VarOffSet
Value in the Line. If it doesn't make sense, that we can discuss later. Do you want to process 72000 Entries by Hand ? I surely don't. And yes, there are THAT many in Total (NOT unique though) !And ?Edit 1: Also note that not all options are 1 byte (Size: 8 in .txt) some are larger for example 2 bytes (Size: 16)
Edit 2:
What you want to achieve with your script is kinda same that this project does: GitHub - linuxboot/uefisettings: The tool to read/get/extract and write/change/modify BIOS/UEFI settings from Linux terminal.
I have not tried if it works with the bios we have on our board. The readme says it will work with some:
And then suggests to use SCELNX as an alternative.
And yes, we can do the same Thing in 10000 Ways.
Just you thinking that me grabbing an Empty (or backing up + Formatting) Flashdrive or cloning an existing LiveUSB onto it and do the Job at that Desk without LAN Access is an easy or comfortable Experience ... Well ... It's NOT. I don't even think I have spare Flashdrives so then the question is which one to Backup and Format etc.
1 Task becoming 100 Tasks very easily.
And I was also trying to sell some of my old stuff out because I need SPACE for these new Systems but of course nobody wants to buy or even come forward with an Offer. Guess I'll just save the Cooler and sell everything Part by Part ...
EDIT 1: Ah no what I pointed out was UEFI Editor -> UEFI Editor
EDIT 2: And we won't get anywhere if we keep changing the System to be honest
uefisettings
I need to build from source which means installing cargo
which I probably don't have (and maybe the required Version is not in the Repositories) etc. And anyways I'm not sure if it supports listing all Items (list-strings
is for hii but unsure if it's supported)EDIT 3: to top it all Off it seems like my Front Panel USB Adapter (or the USB Controller itself) is very finicky since for the last 3 Attempts my Ubuntu LiveUSB appears corrupted (but had no Issues booting from inside a VM on my Desktop)
