* Make sure Windows 10 is installed in UEFI mode! On a SATA disk | |
* Boot into Windows 10 | |
DONT NEED CLOVER TO REPRODUCE THIS BUG. | |
THESE CLOVER STEPS ARE NOT NECESSARY - SKIP. | |
SEE FURTHER BELOW FOR MEMTEST x86 IMAGE METHOD. | |
=== | |
Clover Method: | |
* Download Clover ISO image file, from here: | |
https://sourceforge.net/projects/cloverefiboot/files/Bootable_ISO/ | |
* Unpack .lzma archive with 7zip | |
* In explorer select .lzma file, right click 7Zip --> 'Extract here' | |
* Unpack .tar archive with 7zip | |
* In explorer select .tar file, right click 7Zip --> 'Extract to CloverISO-3346/' | |
* Launch RUFUS tool | |
* Select 'GPT Partition Scheme for UEFI' | |
* Select 'FAT32' | |
* Select 'Clover-v2.3k-3346-X64.iso' | |
* Click 'Start' button | |
* Clover UEFI is now on USB Key | |
* Go to linux computer (for example ubuntu) | |
* Insert Clover USB Key | |
* Optional (to go faster) - make Clover disk size SMALLER | |
* This does not | |
* Load up 'GParted' GUI program | |
* Select Clover USB disk (here, /dev/sdc, the last disk) | |
* Right click Clover partition --> Select 'Unmount' | |
* Right click Clover partition --> Select 'Resize/Move' | |
* Drage the bar smaller, to only 100mb partition size | |
* Click 'Apply' | |
* Make dd disk image in linux of Clover USB | |
* Here, the USB disk is '/dev/sdc' | |
* Command if skipped last steps | |
* $ sudo dd if=/dev/sdc of=clover-usb.dd.img bs=1M | |
* Command if completed last steps | |
* $ sudo dd if=/dev/sdc of=clover-usb.dd.img bs=1M count=200 | |
* Now Get a REAL SATA hard disk - must be SATA / IDE (but can be in USB caddy ATM) | |
* If SATA hdd is called '/dev/sdd', then we restore dd image like this: | |
* Run command, BE CAREFUL FOR OUTPUT DISK | |
* $ sudo dd if=clover-usb.dd.img of=/dev/sdd | |
* Now take SATA hdd out of USB caddy, it has Clover UEFI bootloader installed onto it | |
* Go to target Gigabyte Machine Z170x Gaming 3 / 5 motherboard | |
* Connect SATA hdd with Clover ---> SATA hdd port | |
* So its installed 2x hard disks: | |
(one is Windows UEFI, the other is Clover UEFI hard disk) | |
* Keep attached Windows 10 UEFI boot disk (SATA hdd) | |
* Keep attached the Clover UEFI Boot disk (SATA hdd) | |
* Attach another USB key (FAT32), for taking screenshots | |
* Disconnect all other disks | |
* Reboot into BIOS Setup | |
* Take Screenshot | |
* Continue to boot into Windows 10 | |
* Reboot into BIOS Setup | |
* Take Screenshot | |
* Continue to boot into Windows 10 | |
* Reboot into BIOS Setup | |
* Take Screenshot | |
* Continue to boot into Windows 10 | |

OK - to reproduce this method: | |
* Make sure Windows 10 is installed in UEFI mode! On a SATA disk | |
* Boot into Windows 10 | |
* Download PASSMARK MemTest86 V6.3.0 Free Edition Version 6.2 | |
http://www.memtest86.com/download.htm | |
MAKE SURE ITS UEFI ONE. For example: | |
http://www.memtest86.com/downloads/memtest86-usb.tar.gz | |
* Then Unzip --> dd to SATA HDD (for example with help of USB Caddy) | |
* Go to target Gigabyte Machine Z170x Gaming 3 / 5 motherboard | |
* Connect SATA hdd with Clover ---> SATA hdd port | |
* So its installed 2x hard disks: | |
(one is Windows UEFI, the other is PASSMARK Memtest x86 UEFI hard disk) | |
* Keep attached Windows 10 UEFI boot disk (SATA hdd) | |
* Keep attached the PASSMARK Memtest x86 UEFI Boot disk (SATA hdd) | |
* Attach another USB key (FAT32), for taking screenshots | |
* Disconnect all other disks | |
* Reboot into BIOS Setup | |
* Take Screenshot | |
* Continue to boot into Windows 10 | |
* Reboot into BIOS Setup | |
* Take Screenshot | |
* Continue to boot into Windows 10 | |
* Reboot into BIOS Setup | |
* Take Screenshot | |
* Continue to boot into Windows 10 | |

everytime I update the kernel using mkinitcpio, it duplicates the boot entry (archlinux, two partition and single ssd setup). ga-170x-ud3
