Subject: Disable BIOS menu or set password EDK2
Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2017 11:05:10 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CACPodBxUUDqMg5A=oaSNeCe2K-VTMQ3pCPTyC+dEfLqQYTd0hg@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I am trying to remove the ability to use the BIOS-like menu on my
minnowboard, which is running EDK2 firmware:

https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-platforms/tree/minnowboard-max-udk2015

However I have been unable to locate anywhere that I can turn this
capability off. Is there a way to do this?

Failing this, I would like to be able to set a BIOS password, and by going
to BIOS > Device Manager > System Setup > Security Configuration, I see the
option to "Setup Administrator Password", but setting this password does
not seem to do anything, and I see no option to enable the usage of the
password.
