To automatically insert the correct drivers that need to know exactly where volume number is CSMCORE file.
But in different BIOS volume number is different.

Address 01 mCode + Size 01 mCode = Address 02 mCode

I assume i'm good to go, since the checksum (0xFFD33BF0) matches the 02 mCode Address right?

-->> 02 mCode Adrress - !!!FFD33BF0!!!
....
Address 01 mCode + Size 01 mCode = Address 02 mCode
-->> 0xFFD1C3F0  + 0x00017800  = !!!0xFFD33BF0!!!
 

If the addresses match then all is well.
If the addresses do not match, it is necessary to correct the value of the address in _FIT_.

You have the address has not changed, it is not necessary correct anything.

#2782 | UEFI BIOS Updater (UBU) for Apollo Lake mainboards? datum

Fri Dec 09, 2016 6:49 am

@Fernando
would it be possible to costumize the UEFI BIOS Updater (UBU) for Apollo Lake mainboards?
I've just built a new HTPC with a Apollo Lake Mainboard ASRock J4205-ITX which works great.
Many thanks in advance for your answer.

My current System:
Mainboard: Asus P8P67 Rev3.1, CPU: Intel Xeon E3-1230 & Thermalright HR-02 Macho, RAM: 4x8 GB Crucial Ballistix Tactical LP DDR3L, Graphics: Palit GeForce GTX 1650 Ti KalmX, SSD: 2x1TB Samsung 850 PRO, Blu-Ray:Sony Optiarc BD-5300S, WLAN: Intel Wi-Fi AX 200, Power Supply: HuntKey Jumper 300G planet3dnow-Edition, Case: Thermaltake Level 10 GT, OS: Windows 10 Pro @ 64 bit

Since your question is UBU related and only SoniX as the creator of the tool is able to answer, I have moved your post into this "UBU Discussion" thread.

Zitat von SoniX im Beitrag #2785
BIOS v1.10
Unfortunately UEFIFind and UEFIExtract can not handle the BIOS.

They can. There is a problem with APL SPI images where the last BIOS volume overlaps the start of the next SPI region which is called DevExpansion (UEFITool shows it as Reserved1 as it was called before APL). That's an AMI/Intel source code issue and for some reason the OEMs and/or AMI/Intel have not noticed or don't care enough to fix it. The system works because it just so happens that no data are written at the overlapped section or the last BIOS volume actually ends before such overlap, but a proper parser like UEFITool fails because of the wrong sizes. Check the discussion that I had with CodeRush three months ago on the subject with the equivalent solution. So fix that problem and UBU should work via UEFIFind/UEFIExtract at some extend (SoniX has not added APL support other than universal LAN modules). Other than that, it might not be easy at this point to mod APL SPI images due to some new security implementations, BootGuard 2.0 etc. If you can recover from a bad flash then test, otherwise stay away from APL modding for now.

@SoniX
@CodeRush and
@all on UBU Discussion thread.

I am trying to get to grips with the BIOS modding procedure for an Asus X99-Deluxe BIOS 3402 and have been re-directed from the "Manual AMI UEFI BIOS Modding" discussion forum having been re-directed by Fernando

@PC Pilot:
I am neither the author of the UBU tool nor do I have an Intel X99 chipset mainboard. Nevertheless I have tried to answer your questions according to my knowledge.
If you want to be sure, whether your summary regarding the usability of the UBU tool for X99 mainboard BIOSes is 100% correct, you should better ask SoniX than me.
He is the creator of the tool and knows the best what it can and what not. To be sure, that he reads your questions, please post them into the UBU Discussion thread.

Zitat von PC Pilot im Beitrag #149
b) The Legacy Option ROMS shall require a full manual procedure again using the UEFI Tool.
NB. I would appreciate/welcome some clarification in regards to these 'manual' procedures as my present understanding may be muddled??
CodeRush, the creator of the UEFITool and our BIOS Guru, has promised a long time ago to write a guide about how to use his tool, but until now he obviously didn't have the time to do it.
Nevertheless there is a short guide, which may help you. It is written by our Forum member sinders about how to update the Intel RAID ROM of an Intel X99 ASUS mainboard by using the UEFITool. You can find the short guide >here<.

Perhaps you can verify my understanding in respect of updating the EFI modules using the UBU Tool:

(i.e.) Option 1) for Intel Chipset SATA RAID Controller - DEV_2822, Option 3) for both LAN Controllers (Intel Ethernet Connection I218-V - DEV_15A1 & Intel I211 Gigabit Network Connection - DEV_1539) plus Option 7) for the CPU MicroCodes update together with any other module (eg. NVMe??) you suggest as being available and useful to update.

I would very much appreciate your comments concerning my summary from the linked post above and would also like to consult your expertise as to how best (ideally step by step) to update each of the following Legacy OROMs

IRST RAID for SATA & AMI NVMe Driver
Intel Gigabit Undi
Intel Pro/1000 Undi
CPU MicroCodes (if Manual Procedure necessary)

I appreciate from Fernando's above comment that you have likely not had the time to draft the desired step by step guide so I apologise if my post seeks to resurrected the issue!

In any case, all help, advice and assistance is very much appreciated.

Many thanks
PC Pilot

EDIT 1 by Fernando: Moved into the correct UBU Discussion thread (the other thread is reserved for SoniX's UBU update announcements)
EDIT 2 by Fernando: To enhance the chances, that SoniX and/or CodRush get knowledge about your post, I have directly addressed this post to them.
