Clear Gigabyte CMOS
Because of a bug in the Gigabyte firmware, the CSM 1.5 install may negatively impact Gigabyte motherboards when attempting to boot using bonded Mellanox network cards. The result is a board that is unusable until a CMOS clear is physically done via a jumper on the board itself.
A patched firmware release (newer than C20 BIOS) is expected to be available in the future.
It is recommended that Gigabyte users wait for this new firmware before attempting an installation of CSM 1.5.
The procedure to recover the boards is included below.
All firmware can be found with HFP package provided with the CSM release.
