[ARCHIVE] Outdated UBU Tool related Questions, Reports and Suggestions

@Fernando
I can only find guides to inject ffs, not bins. Care to link me?

@Warboy :
>Here< is the related guide, but what has your question to do with the UBU tool resp. with the topic of this thread?

@SoniX @Fernando

Intel RSTe SATA & sSATA OROM & EFI v5.3.0.1041

intel_rste_5.3.0.1041.zip (296 KB)

@Pacman :
Thanks for the link.

@all:
As soon as I have the required time and my usual equipment, I will offer them within the related “BIOS Modules“ Sub-Forum threads.

Hello.

I’m n00b.

Will this be further developed? It seems to be really interesting.

I use Linux. Any hopes to make it work under it?

@timofonic :
Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum!

We all hope, that the author SoniX will continue the development of the UBU tool.
Since the BIOS is OS independend, Linux users will benefit from the tool as well as Windows users.
By the way: I have moved your post into the better matching UBU Discussion thread.

Z170/Z270 don’t support Coffee Lake by Intel choice, even if chipset could: adding the respective microcode may work?


links are broken
nvm i got it


it’s not that hard to add an extra microcode patch to the bios to test and see. Linus on the LAN show mentioned a leak from an asus employee that
mentioned the z270 would support it, and that intel lied


Running CFL on z270 is not possible. workarounds do not exist.

I thought the wording of the notes section here was ambiguous:
"non-UEFI AMI or Intel mainboard BIOSes"

Does that mean that Intel mainboard firmware are not supported? I assume that this means any non-UEFI Intel firmware as opposed to firmware made by Intel in general. Which is correct?

@Ieshohjoo5 :
Welcome to the Win-RAID Forum!
I have moved your post into this thread, because the other one has been designed for the UBU Guide and the announcements of new UBU versios.

Yes, because Intel gave their mainboard BIOSes a specificic structure, which cannot be opened by any normal UEFI BIOS tool.
So the words within the quotation marks mean: Neither non-UEFI AMI BIOSes nor BIOSes wth the suffix *.bio (for mainboards manufactured by Intel), are supported by the UBU tool.

What about this:

EDIT by Fernando: Reference post added (to make clear, to whome this post has been addressed)

It could work, but not without intel’s “blessing”.

UEFITool NE A44

@Fernando :
Thanks!
But how would it be possible to make it run under Linux? Is the source code available? Maybe Wine can work on it, I would need to check it and I’m terribly stressed with studies at this moment :stuck_out_tongue:

EDIT by Fernando: Unneeded fully quoted post replaced by directly addressing to the author (to save space)

@timofonic :
The UBU tool can only be used while running Windows, but you can use and benefit from a BIOS, which has been modified by the UBU tool, while running a Linux distribution.
