Yoga S1 wont PXE, secure boot affecting it.

Help needed....
I have a Lenovo S1 yoga, and i cant PXE boot it. SIMPLE, there is o option to NIC option shown.
I have a Microsoft System center 2012 which deploys images via pxe, this works for T540. M93 and T440 and previous same model Yogas. The base image is a company version of Windows 8.1Pro.
I have a Lenovo Onelink dock, and have included the one dock driver into the wim image.
The problem lies with the BIOS and the the function you cant switch OFF the secure boot and put boot into both boot mode, legacy first, i have saved it and every time it saves and reboots it SWITCHES the secure boot back ON !
This doesn't display any option to boot from anything other the HDD or windows boot manager on restart.
i have also disabled the OS optimized defaults which switches back on after reboot.....
This has been successful in the past and i have captured the base image for our Yoga machines.
i have even upgraded firmware 1.18 -1.20 hoping it might put the feature back or do something.
The FEATURE has rendered the machines useless and if i cant find an answer back to supplier it is..
I have bought 4 of these machines and i don't know what has changed but might have to rethink our Lenovo structure as this feature renders them non company friendly.
20CDOOCUAU
i7 2.0GHZ
8GB
Can anyone help.....please
P.S
Went to look at the old machines which was successful, they are on FW 1.15, was this an addition?

Yoga 11 Secure Boot State Off - How to enable it?

Hi all, first of all I would like to provide you with some background information. I purchased (in Germany) 2 identical Yoga 11 machines (MAS29GE). Both had display ghosting issues and one of them had a lose trackpad. So, I sent them in for repair.
After getting back the 2nd one as well, I wanted to see whether the BIOS versions are identical on them, since the repair report said that there was a BIOS update performed on both machines. The BIOS version seems to be the very same I had before sending them in: v1.2.58, 05.12.2012
But then I noticed something strange: on one of the Yogas the Secure Boot State is Off. I checked it also with PowerShell and it shows False, meaning disabled.
So, I called Lenovo support, but they weren't able to help me. The answer was that I cannot enter the BIOS to change this.
However, I suspect that either the technicians entered the BIOS and forgot to enable secure boot later on, or something else messed it up. What I also noticed after receiving the Yogas back from repair is that the "Advanced Startup" in
Windows shows more options on one machne than the other. Please, see the below images for details:

I did 2x System restores already (1x quick, 1x secure), but the Secure Boot State did not change (this was to be expected since this settings is in the UEFI BIOS and not in Windows - nevertheless, was worth a try).
As I read in other comments, Microsoft did not intend users to enter the BIOS on Windows RT machines.
Please, note that I did not "Jailbreak" the system, for 1) I have no idea how to do it and 2) I don't intend to hack it. One reason why I bought Windows RT because I wanted to keep legacy x86 viruses out of the system.
So, what do you suggest? I really do not wish to send the machine back for another 2 weeks only for 1 single change in the BIOS. Please, help! Thanks!

Hello,
As far as I know, you are the only individual I have ever heard of who has received a Windows RT-based computer with the Secure Boot option disabled.
Because of this, I am not certain what steps you would take to (re)enable this functionality on the device.
What I would suggest you do is perhaps post a message on the Windows 8, RT Development and Hacking forum over at XDA-Developers, and perhaps one of the members over there can make some suggestions.

Windows 7 Deployment via PXE to an UEFI + secure boot enabled Lenovo system.

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if above was possible?. I have not yet put much energy this uefi and secure boot thingy - so just told our supporters to change bios settings back to Legacy with secure boot disabled on the pre Windows 8 delivered Lenovo systems.
Deployment system :
SCCM 2012 SP1 is running on a Windows Server 2008R2

Yoga 3 Pro - Accessing BIOS, boot menu and System Recovery

The following tutorial will explain the following topics
How to access the BIOS Setup
Choosing a boot menu
Start a system recovery
It is not the idea to explain every single option of the above, since many of them are complex and it would be too extensive for such a tutorial like this.
To execute any of the tasks above you need to press the button marked with the red arrow in the picture below:
Press the button when the Y3P is off! Use a small pointing device, I use the tablet pen of one of my Thinkpad tablets
Once you press the button you will be presented with the following screen:
Use the cursor keys to move up and down, press Enter to choose an option.
1) BIOS Setup
The BIOS is where you can get technical information about your device, as well to change boot parameters and setting up security passwords. Be very careful when changing certain values, since it can affect the way the Y3P works and/or affect performance and security settings.
Information Screen
It gives the hardware details of the Y3P, like CPU, installed RAM, SSD capacity and so on. This is a display only screen, no settings can be changed here:
Configuration Screen
Time and date can be changed in this screen. Furthermore to deactivate the Wireless LAN and enable the Intel Virtual Technology. If you plan to use Virtual Machine software in your Y3P this setting must be enabled
Passwords can be set up in this section. Secure Boot settings can be changed here.
Primarily designed to protect users from rootkits and other malware attacks by blocking unauthorized executables and drivers from being loaded during the boot process, it must be deactivated if you plan to install Linux or having paralel operating systems
Boot Screen
Boot modes can be selected in this screen, you can disable booting from a USB stick or from a network for example
2) Boot Menu
This option is useful if you have Linux installed (using managers like LILO, GRUB, etc).
If you only use Win8 or higher there 's no much you can change.
3) System Recovery
This option will allow you to restore the system to either its factory setup, or to a previous backup done within Windows
A factory set up will leave the Y3P as it was shipped from Lenovo your private data and installed apps and/or programs will be wiped out. So make sure you have an external backup before such a reset

OK article. Doesn't answer my questions.

Can't activate secure boot after upgrading from Win 7 to Win 8 on a Spectre XT

Hi everybody,
my first post here, so please forgive me if the topic has already been discussed
I did search before posting anyway, but I couldn't found anything addressing this specific point.
My (small, I must admit) problem is as follows:
I recently purchased a Spectre XT 13-2005tu (i7 processor, 4Gb RAM, 256Gb SSD) with Windows 7 pre-installed.
After installing my favourite applications and using it for a few weeks without any trouble, I thought to take the opportunity of the $14.99 upgrade to Win 8, so I downloaded Windows 8 Pro and installed it (as an upgrade, rather than a fresh installation, because I didn't want to loose the customizations I already made).
I also installed all the updates available on HP website (sp59158 for updated BIOS, sp58404 for UEFI support, ecc.)
The whole upgrade worked nicely, and the PC is now up and running with Win 8.
Now, I'm trying to use at best all the possibilities Win 8 has to offer, and among them, the UEFI secure boot.
I found the "legacy support" option in the BIOS settings, which as I understand must be disabled to activate the UEFI secure boot, but if I do that the PC tells that there's no operating system on the disk and doesn't boot anymore.
Which was a bit scary by the way, but eventually I could re-enable the legacy support in the BIOS and have the PC working again, but of course with no secure boot.
I suppose there must be some other re-configuration that should be done before changing the BIOS parameter, but I couldn't find any instruction for that anywhere on the web.
On the other hand, it would be indeed weird if the secure boot could not be configured AFTER the OS upgrade, and a new fresh installation would be necessary.
I'd rather part with the secure boot than re-install everything, but that would be a shame... :-(
I hope someone can explain what should be done, many thanks in advance!

Thanks for your feedback, but I don't think your issue is the same as the one I previously explained.
The UEFI/secure boot setting is a basic configuration affecting the way the PC boots, regardless of whether it is connected to a network or not.
By the way, in the meantime I've seen in a shop exactly the same PC model which I'm using, now sold with Win 8 pre-installed, and it was working with the UEFI enabled (= BIOS "legacy support" disabled).
Therefore, the configuration I'm interested in has to be feasible, one way or another...!

Upcoming issues for secure boot and arch installs

I came across this rather worrying article indicating that when Microsoft starts approving hardware for Window 10 machines they may not allow secure boot to be turned off, and thereby make it very difficult for users to install arch on such a machine unless it can be booted using secure boot:
http://arstechnica.com/information-tech … a-reality/
I suppose at some point there will need to be a method of getting the appropriate certificates for arch to allow booting on machines using secure boot.

I've heard the systemd guys are working on integrating secure boot with systemd and gummiboot. So you might be able to sign everything yourself and secureboot your GNU/Linux/Systemd machine.
But currently I don't know anything about it and don't care about it. Like trilby said, if I'm not able to use a specific hardware I will not use it.
Sure I won't buy hardware that I can't install Arch on - but what is a potential problem is if OEMs are forced into only selling locked hardware if they wish to sell it with Windows on it in the future - that would give MS a monopoly position - and for laptops it is not so easy to find hardware that is free of MS apart from a limited range of laptops that have Ubuntu installed when supplied (and of course IOS and chromeos based machines). For desktops it is not too difficult to buy components or barebones systems that you can customise and install whatever you like on - but laptops don't generally fall into that option range. I do have to keep Windows for some tasks that it is close to impossible to do without Windows (like satnav updates for example) though it principle a VM could be used with Windows on it. It is a shame that for this kind of task there isn't a linux alternative that avoids Windows altogether! It would be nice to find barebones laptops that you can install any OS of choice on with none on the machine at the time of purchase.
I know this argument was discussed at length before Secure Boot appeared in the machines that are on the market now - and at the time I thought that the basic principle of not having one O/S manufacturer monopolising the market and excluding other O/Ses had been established and expected to continue along this path - but the news item indicates that a significant departure from that policy may now take place over the next year or two. Giving users the option to disable Secure Boot has no impact on the security of the Windows O/S on a particular machine unless the user actively disables it but that should remain the user's choice. The only reason to lock down the BIOS in this way is to attempt to close off competition to Windows. In a true free market there should be hardware that is not so locked - or at least have as much choice of hardware that is not incumbent on control from MS. There are worries that the BIOS is vulnerable to firmware hacking but that could in principle happen even if the Secure Boot option is designed to have no user control to turn it off. Maybe devices that will re-flash the BIOS with one that does allow Secure Boot will be developed - I seem to remember that some machines are "operated on" during delivery to customers in that kind of way to install firmware components that are not in place at manufacture - so that kind of technology already exists.
It will no doubt be interesting to see how this plays out over the next couple of years.
Edit: I guess if it comes to the crunch that people will start to play with the information such as at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … ecure_Boot
I've tried using VB as a PXE client for Arch, and VB keeps blowing up. It's better if you just run it straight.

MSI GT-60 No Secure Boot in BIOS

Hey all I am in a bit of a pickle.
I have an MSI GT-60 that came with windows 8. I don't like windows 8 so I decided to put windows 7 on it. When I did the laptop blue screens and restarts every 2 minutes due to the video card (it wont blue screen if I disable it) I dug up a little and found out this is the most likely problem
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=165501.0
Among others it would seem the main problem is the BIOS needs to be flash to the new version. My laptop is still under warranty so I contacted support and after many lengthy conversations they finally gave me instructions on how to upgrade the factory windows 8 bios to the new windows 8 bios which will hopefully solve this problem. They specifically said DO NOT flash to a windows 7 BIOS.
The main step required to update the BIOS is to disable secure boot. My BIOS's security screen is completely blank except to create a password. I scrolled through the entire BIOS and there is NO secure boot option. Has this happened to anyone before and or know how to update the BIOS ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It happened to me before on my windows 8 msi ge40. I downgraded to windows 7 & flash the bios intended for windows 7, i.e. I replaced the pre-flashed windows 8 bios that comes with the notebook when i bought it with Windows 7 bios i downloaded from the MSI GE40 product download page.
& when i decided to revert back to windows 8, i noticed that the secure boot option was no longer there in the bios. I tried to boot my system from the windows 8 recovery media (USB flash drive) i prepared but the system could not boot from it. I was trying also to revert back to windows 8 bios but the system could not boot from the usb flash drive.
I contacted MSI and asked for their help. They sent me the below link but it simply did not work.
http://www.msi.com/files/pdf/How_to_make_a_bootable_flash_disk_and_to_flash_BIOS_f.pdf
So what I did was i went again to BIOS download page of my notebook. There are 2 ways in there to update the bios. And between the 2, this one works for me
http://www.msi.com/files/pdf/Flash_BIOS_by_UEFI_BIOS_Setup_Utility_en.pdf
I was then able to revert back to windows 8 bios & of course, secure boot option returns. In fact, i have updated my notebook bios to the latest one intended for windows 8.1
Hope this helps.

T450s downgrade Win 8.1 Pro to Win 7 Pro Secure Boot Process?

Hi all, New owner of a T450S with 8.1 Pro. I have a Windows 7 Pro OEM disc (no serial number) that I can put on a USB thumb drive. Prior to owning a secure boot machine I would just format the hard and install Win 7. With secure boot and the downgrade I'm not sure how this works. 1. Is the serial number that I have backwards compatable? Can I just format, install and use the 8.1 Pro serial number on my Lenovo? 2. I believe I will have to disable secure boot but I'm not sure. Any help or link to a tutorial would be appreciated. ThanksChrissy

@ the OP,
The article ColonelOneill linked says "You’ll need to activate by phone. Call up the phone number displayed in the activation window and explain that you’re exercising your Windows 8 Pro downgrade rights. Have your Windows 8 Pro key ready; you’ll need it to prove your PC has downgrade rights."
Here's a link to Microsoft's description of how to activate a downgrade: Understanding downgrade rights

Windows 8 Installation Disc Won't Load UEFI-only (T420s). Also does T420S support Secure Boot?

Question 1:
I am unable to load the Windows 8 Installation DVD in UEFI (only) mode on my T420s. As a result, I can only run the installer in Legacy mode (or both UEFI/Legacy which effectively means the same thing). This in turn means Windows 8 is installed in Legacy BIOS mode. Any idea how to install it in UEFI mode?
I am using a DVD burned using the Windows utility from the Windows 8 64-bit ISO and have followed the instructions in HT073269, however I am unable to get to step 1 of the Windows 8 install after updating the BIOS, resetting to defaults, and switching to UEFI-only. On boot, after switching to UEFI-only, I am presented with a bootloader and prompted to select which drive to boot (DVDRAM or SSD). Selecting either makes the screen go blank for a moment and then returns back to the same screen with no result.
Since then I have searched these forums extensively and Googled Technet, Notebook Review, and other sites to no avail. I've tried several several ideas, including using diskpart > clean to get the SSD in raw status (per HT051844). That did not make a difference. I also tried converting a Legacy-BIOS install of Windows 8 to UEFI using CharlyAR's instructions on TechNet (linked from another thread here). That seemed to get me to a Windows Boot Loader but still errored out and Windows Repair was unable to fix it.
Any suggestions?
Also, question 2: Does anyone know if the T420S support secure boot? If not, any idea if it's slated for a future firmware update?

Secure Boot is a certificate-based approach to preventing rootkits, not the same thing as UEFI. Although Secure Boot requires UEFI, having UEFI does not mean having the additional Secure Boot feature. If Secure Boot is available, typically there will be an option to enable it in the firmware configuration. Since the latest firmware for the T420S (ver. 1.35) does not have such an option, I suspect ThorsHammer is correct that Secure Boot is not (yet) supported on the T420S. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Lenovo will tell us that a firmware update is on its way though.
My understanding is that it will never support secure boot. The secure boot support starts at Ivy Bridge and the T430s.

Upgrading Windows 7 (Legacy BIOS/MBR Disk) to Windows 8 (UEFI/GPT/Secure Boot)

Hi there,
I've recently purchased a W530 with Windows 7 pre-installed. Ultimately, I'd like to replace this with Window 8 + Secure Boot. I believe I can get Windows 8 via the Microsoft Upgrade offer for a reasonable price, since this was a recent purchase.
What's the best way to reach my goal?
The Windows 7 install uses Legacy BIOS to boot with an MBR disk.
I had a quick look at Acronis, and I can see that it's possible that the "OS will be automatically converted to support UEFI booting" (http://www.acronis.com/support/documentation/ABR11/index.html#14021.html) when using it's tool.
If I don't use this approach, what can I do? Can I:
1. Use Rescue and Recovery in Windows 7 (Legacy BIOS/MBR disk)
2. Wipe the drive and reformat it with GPT?
3. Install Windows 7 with UEFI enabled using the Rescue and Recovery made in step 1?
4. At this point, I would now have UEFI and GPT.
5. Perform an Upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8 and enable Secure Boot?
Any thoughts as to whether this would work?
Richard.

Hi richii,
The Acronis approach ends up in failure. Didn't give it a second look at the reason, since the tool it's not necessary. I also tried several other "automatic" tools without success.
The recovery approach will fail because it's tied up to BIOS boot.
But I've performed the conversion from BIOS to UEFI two times successfully. After some digging, is not SO hard. It's just... "undocumented". Very, very undocumented, hehe. I made a step-by-step guide: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/14286.converting-windows-bios-installatio...
Let me know if it helps you...
Anyway, if you don't have data/software, I would go for the clean install approach.
Cheers.
If I helped you, please give me some kudos! ^^

Windows 8.1 Ent eval enabled Secure Boot I think

I want to get my laptop back to its original format.
Currently dual booting Windows7/8.1
During the installation of Windows 8.1 Enterprise evaluation it paused to say it was going to enable secure boot. I did'nt think much of it I thought I could change it back from the bios. Did it flash my firmware? I checked the system status
with msinfo32.exe; was legacy mode and with powershell; secure boot not supported. I don't have any options to disable secure boot in the bios nor from within Windows -"I know how to disable it in windows 8.1". I can't boot a foreign
operating system, but I can boot a Microsoft OS which sounds like secure boot to me. I want to get it back to running Windows 7 dual booting with Linux. I use both at work and need both. I made the mistake by loading the Eval on my primary
laptop. I read I need to revert back to Windows 7 completely, formating and re-installing the OS. Will this clear my secure boot simulation issue? I have not changed the partitions or removed any O/S's. What's the best way
to proceed?

Hi,
I want to explain that, Secure Boot is indepent with system, you can disable it in UEFI interface.
To disable Secure Boot, you can follow the steps below:
1.Before disabling Secure Boot, consider whether it is necessary. From time to time, your manufacturer may update the list of trusted hardware, drivers, and operating systems for your PC. To check for updates, go to Windows Update, or check your manufacturer's
website.
2.Open the PC BIOS menu. You can often access this menu by pressing a key during the bootup sequence, such as F1, F2, F12, or Esc.
Or, from Windows, hold the Shift key while selecting Restart. Go to Troubleshoot > Advanced Options: UEFI Firmware Settings.
3.Find the Secure Boot setting, and if possible, set it to Disabled. This option is usually in either the Security tab, the Boot tab, or the Authentication tab.
4.Save changes and exit. The PC reboots.
I found an aticle that teach how to install dual-boot Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 on a PC with UEFI hardware:
http://www.linuxbsdos.com/2012/10/11/dual-boot-windows-7-and-ubuntu-12-04-on-a-pc-with-uefi-hardware/

Dual booting S540 and linux with Secure Boot?

At some point I intend to install archlinux with dual boot on my Thinkpad S540 which currently runs Windows 8.1.
All the current advice about dual boot on UEFI machines seems to indicate that the way to go is to disable Secure Boot (and Fastboot) for Windows, and then do the linux install choosing a linux bootloader to allow booting either O/S. I believe I know the steps needed to do that.
Does anyone have any experience with dual booting Windows 8.1 and ArchLinux on the S540? I would like to retain Secure Boot for Windows, and in the ideal world have Secure Boot running for ArchLinux also. However Secure Boot is fraught with problems for Linux. There are a few distributions such as Ubuntu which will in principle support Secure Boot but I only use ArchLinux and want to install that particular flavour of linux on my machine. It is of course possible to keep switching Secure Boot on and off in the BIOS before booting either of the two installed operating systems but it would be neater and cleaner to have it all with Secure Boot on, or all with it off.
This is all very new stuff so there may well be a lot of problems, but it is worth exploring. I use rEFInd as my bootloader on another UEFI desktop computer to boot ArchLinux so I am familiar with that bootloader, but dual boot is another thing, and Secure Boot with the fast moving developments in that area is something that until now very few people have tinkered with.
Any replies and guidance/suggestions appreciated.

I'm guessing /boot can run from ntfs, however probably not as efficiently as if it were running on ext3/4. Mine runs on Ext4.
To add confusion, you only create one Extended partition, all partitions you create within the Extended partition are called Logical partitions. You should be able to create enough Logical partitions for your needs.
Primary/Extended partitions are normally sda1-4 and Logical partitions will usually start from sda5 on modern Sata HDD systems.
For /boot I would create a small 100mb Ext4 Logical partition. This partition cannot be inside LVM nor encrypted when using Grub1. I'm not familiar with Grub2.

Am currently running Windows 7 (under VMWare Fusion 5.x) on a Macbook Pro. When running Windows 8 Upgrade ***'t, I get a Secure Boot compatibility notification

The Microsoft Upgrade Assistant identifies several issues related to compatibility of my system with a Windows 8 upgrade which I'm considering on my Macbook Pro (which is runnng OS X 10.8.2). The message indicates that there is a firmware incompatibility with Microsoft's recently introduced Secure Boot. Is there a resolution on the Apple side? If there is not and none can be expected, does this rule out installation of Windows 8 altogether on my system?

Given that what the MUA is seeing is a virtual computer created by the Fusion environment, the problem lies more in VMWare's realm, rather than Apple's. Which would be the case if you were running on BootCamp instead.
Am running Fusion 4 and haven't upgraded (long story), so I have no knowledge if the latest update to Fusion 5 already incorporates the Windows 8 profile when creating, updating or running a VM, so as to satisfy MS's paranoid requirements. So, assuming you are running Fusion 5, maybe checking in VMWare's forums may yield more up to date info.
OTOH, given that MS is betting the whole farm on Win8, would not suprise me in the least that they would shut down virtualization support in all but a special, more expensive, Win8Virtual edition.......
Edit: BTW, the latest Oracle VirtualBox does incorporate Win8 profiles in both 32 and 64 bit versions, so it would not suprise me that the latest Fusion 5 did as well.
