@plutomaniac you rights We knows with @Fernando many-many times. And with You. low bow for You.
@Fernando @MeatWar @Michael_Code A new meme will undoubtedly start “Learn to _Code”

Tried it out on my modded Asus Zenith Extreme BIOS/UEFI.
Seemed to work without hiccup. Will flash later this evening.
Used it with Python version 3.11.8
Updated UBU worked fine, I just updated the OROM for network, otherwise very straightforward update. 
Used the Annex method to flash & it went very smoothly.
Cheers

Any particular issue with the EFI Intel PRO1000 UNDI - 9.8.40 (E9840X3.EFI)?
EDIT: Noticed also the use the Realtek EFI x64 2.060 corrected, here
RtkUndiDxe.2.062_corr.rar (60.2 KB) and RtkUndiDxe.2.063_corr.rar (57.7 KB)
corrected, please verify and confirm for your UBU package.
Got a little experience working with ubu, uefipatch, uefitool, flashrom by almost bricking my board while attempting to mod the bios to support resizable bar on RTX 2000 series cards.
I have an ASRock x470 Taichi.
I noticed that the drivers for the integrated nic can be updated via ubu. This asrock board comes with an intel I211AT wich crashes badly any windows host os when disabling/enabling the adapter. (freeze, sometimes for minutes, then adapter shows as “Device cannot start. Device does not exist” in device manager. )
I tried to let ubu do it’s magic with the network driver but it can’t do it :

I’ve been though this thread EFI LAN BIOS + Intel GopDriver modules - #189 by clackersx and got what seems to be the right efi files for my I211-AT card copied to UBU_1_79_17\Files\intel\LAN\EFI but still it does not work.
It should install 9.8.24 since this nic is i211
Am i missing something ?
Thanks for your great work!
The modules that can be exchanged by UBU are relevant for the pre-boot network environment and aren’t a device firmware. Those modules aren’t any longer relevant when the os driver is loaded. So I doubt that updating these modules will help you with your I211 crashing…

searched this forum for it, where is it ?
I understand. So this is a board problem then, nothing to do with drivers ? the most stable seem to be those that come with the OS. if i try to install intel network drivers from intel, they crash even worse.
I think disabling onboard lan then installing a pcie dedicated nic is a better solution
thx guys
@superpower, in new UBU. It only for network boot.
I’m aware of hardware problems with the 1218 chip, I haven’t heard of the 1211.
Well, drivers and drivers- the modules in a firmware are EFI drivers but are part of pretty much hardware related firmware.
For Intel NIC there’s some ‘settings / registers’ in GbE (for Intel firmware) and the NIC itself does have a non volatile memory which can be updated (if you find the correct package/ tools!). I really don’t know too much about this!
For example (nothing there for your I211 though)
(Those firmware packages might again contain the UNDI/ PXE modules both for EFI/ legacy since they are might be meant a standalone- NIC)
allright, thank you guys
Hi there! I really love this project and I’m finding it incredibly useful and fun to play around with. But I’ve found a slight issue involving 2.5Gib network cards. The PRO2500.efi files go completely ignored by UBU and are not, in any way, referenced in the UBU.bat file. This means that attempted updates and even checks on the EFI result in the EFI being removed from the UEFI completely. There exists checks for 1Gib and 10Gib at least.
I would add the code to the batch file myself, but the complexity of the code is a little beyond my expertise. With newer boards coming with 2.5G chips onboard, I think it would benefit the project to at least add in checks for the files.
Thanks!
The issue is not new and it’s not an issue, it’s the result of a project not fully developed anymore, the author is aging, doesn’t have time for it and has more respect for the time left of his life.
The DXE driver can be updated with the UEFI tool.
EDIT:
No need to be sorry about anything, i’m just exposing the facts and yes, an updated branch was picked up from the original but not new code developed, only small adjustments and updated modules. For example, the drvver.c needs a revision on its code, the new releases of the Realtek PXE EFI are not correctly identified… etc.
I’m sorry, I had been of the impression that the project was picked up by Michael_Code.
Is it not official?
Hi Michael Code…
Is there a reason why you removed the UBU update?
@Fernando
I forgot as private mail. Now, I`m without translater. You known, first Russian, second English from 6 Year old. Gemarny problem.
@Michael_Code
Why do you need to translate any text to German?
Are you not able to use the good translater (e.g. the Google one)?
If you should be unsure with the English language, I can help you if you want. Just send me your text via PM.
@Fernando , I`m unsure in my English. you didn’t accept me. I can in English. I don’t know German at all, it’s your native language. Dieter, I’m sorry.
Which is the problem about German? This is a pure English language Forum and there is no need to write me anything in German language.
The current UBU Guide has been written by me, not by SoniX. If you don’t want to write a completely new Guide, you can tell me what should be changed and I will customize the Guide according to your wishes.
