When all else fails, I use a usb3 NIC until the correct NIC drivers are found :-) I think you can use another disk to install UEFI setup and boot your raid from that install. If you do not have a spare disk, use USB to experiment. They are cheap to buy and use as you only need a bare install (on USB) to get started. I converted several legacy to UEFI. However, none was from a RAID. I always leave 32G in every install/boot disk for crunch work like this. I recommend this. Even the machine that has RAID1 boot has first 32G on each RAID1 disk unused (so that I can convert this install too into UEFI, when I decide to) Note that you need GPT for UEFI boot disk. So, separate disk/USB is the best. Ramesh On 6/28/22 20:05, Alexander Shenkin wrote:
Thanks all, Once I installed a graphics card, I was able to enable CSM and I've booted successfully. Thanks everyone for your help. Converting to UEFI would be a good idea, though not sure how easy that will be given that /boot is a RAID1 array (how do you resize all the partitions, etc?). Anyway, now looking for a network driver for this mobo... ;-) On 6/28/2022 2:57 PM, Ram Ramesh wrote:quoted

CSM is greyed out. I think I need a graphics cardIs secure boot disabled? Legacy boot is not compatible with secure boot.There's no way to completely disable secure boot on this mobo. It's an Asus Prime B560M-A.Can you boot legacy install with UEFI boot disk? Have you tried booting with sysrescuecd or some such to boot your installed OS? Have you considered converting UEFI? CSM/Legacy boot support is dropping steadily. Sooner or later it will be extinct. Regards Ramesh
