If you previously used my AptioMemoryFix Docker builder, please do the following:

docker rmi pavo/aptiofix_builder
docker pull pavo/aptiofix_builder

There was a few issues with the way it was updating EDK2 and now has been resolved.

fabiosun,

 

2 questions.

— Are you sure you follow the guidelines regarding recommended bios preferences? Particularly fast boot must be off.

— If you do, which exact commit works fine for you? Yes, I am interested in you checking them all and posting the results here.

 

Yesterday I committed a3883f3efec55272717e634659fc5f5900fdc2f6, which *might* indeed cause issues on some platforms, so it was the point to give it a try.

Attached one is working well for me in all conditions

latest commit I have built with @pavo's sh produce that error in a cold boot condition (in a cold condition I have to force slide=128 with it)

 

Yes

Fastboot is off and I have 4G enabled by default

git reset --hard a3883f3efec55272717e634659fc5f5900fdc2f6

I got "does printf work??" (without patching boot.efi) after upgrading to latest commit. I highly suspected my NVRAM got corrupt (some of bios setup options has gone) and fixed that by resetting cmos + load setup default.

 

544bc5f18ca4e73362e5423ada2c906e1fc40de7: best release so far for me (sleep like a babe wake like a MAN, fixed prev issue). Thanks devs, will keep you inform!

In my case after allocation error system enter in bios and it freeze (If I do nothing)

If I press ctrl alt del when allocation error appears the system starts fine

I repeat myself, I have this problem only @cold boot

 

it seems without slide checking messages list boot procedure is to fast to allocate memory..but this is a noob theory I think! :)

Default build is both DEBUG and RELEASE. If you want to build either a RELEASE or a DEBUG version do the following commands:

docker run -it -v $HOME/Desktop/AptioFix_Build:/root/AptioFix_Build --name AptioFixBuild --entrypoint /root/setup.sh Initial_Build RELEASE

or:

docker run -it -v $HOME/Desktop/AptioFix_Build:/root/AptioFix_Build --name AptioFixBuild --entrypoint /root/setup.sh Initial_Build DEBUG

 

Hello Pavo, if i try to build a RELEASE or a DEBUG version I have this error: "docker: invalid reference format: repository name must be lowercase."

 

EDIT: Just find out, that i need to write "Initial_Build" in lowercase.

EDIT 2: Each time it starts build, it reports "rm: cannot remove '/root/AptioFix_Build': Device or resource busy", but build is created successfully.

AptioMemoryFix repo is up to date.

Yeah because you are attaching the host Volume to the Docker Volume, I am still investigating the exact issue but I think its because of the Volume being attached while the script is using the Volume.

 

Edit: Thanks for pointing the lowercase issues out, fixed the post with the instructions.

OK think I found the issue and have pushed new image, can you do another:

docker pull pavo/aptiofix_builder

and test please.

 

This is the output I get now:

I forgot to let you know that you need to rebuild the initial_build image from the new pavo/aptiofix_builder image after the pull.

Do these steps in order:

docker rmi initial_build
docker pull pavo/aptiofix_builder
docker run -it -v $HOME/Desktop/AptioFix_Build:/root/AptioFix_Build --name AptioFixBuild pavo/aptiofix_builder
docker commit AptioFixBuild initial_build 
docker rm AptioFixBuild

Then the next time you run the container you shouldn't get that output anymore

docker run -it -v $HOME/Desktop/AptioFix_Build:/root/AptioFix_Build --name AptioFixBuild pavo/aptiofix_builder

Yeah, before you wrote this so I tried it and it works. Thanks for your work, Pavo.

I think there are no version numbers. Doesnt matter really.

My idea: If someone build AptioMemoryFix  from https://github.com/vit9696/AptioFixPkg and share it here - many thanks to them!!!-

the COMMITS number could be used as an  "version number". So also semi devs - not build but follow dev & want to test - see which commits are within the build and can tell excat which results they get with that for example  " 40 commits version".

sorry I have not understood it was a "special"release :)

 

Not “current” version of clover fabiosun sorry. I guess you can feature request it.
