Description
Writes all BIOS options, that you can replicate to the BIOS of another
system, to the specified filename. The file name you specify should have
.ini
extension and it is created in the default installation directory.
The format of the output is in a
.ini
format, with the utility name as the
section header. If a file with the same name already exists, the information
is appended to the file. If this option is used with other function
commands, the commands are applied in the order in which they appear.
This option captures replicable BIOS options. The file is created in the
directory where you run the CCTK command.
In the
.ini
file, bootorder is displayed as boot order type with a list of
comma separated device short forms in the order they are assigned. A plus
(
+
) symbol with the device name indicates that the device is enabled and
a minus (
-
)symbol indicates that the device is disabled. You can change
the boot order by changing the order of the list. You can also enter the
device number instead of the device name.
You can enable or disable the devices by changing the symbol displayed
with the device. These symbols are optional and if not present, the current
status of the device is retained.
NOTE: The bootorder option in the .ini file is applied to a system based on its
active boot list. If the .ini file is generated from a system with the active boot
list set as uefi, and it is applied on a system with the active boot list set as
legacy, the boot order is set only if the devices are available in the system. It is
recommended that you apply the .ini file on a system with the same active
boot list as of the system from where the .ini file is generated.
Example
C:\>cctk -o <c:/cctk>/filename.ini
