# 3-in-1 Hybrid Boot Disk (BIOS/UEFI)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This guide shows how to prepare a disk on Ubuntu
|
||||||
|
to be bootable from BIOS, 32-bit and 64-bit UEFI
|
||||||
|
with Secure Boot enabled.
|
||||||
|
The intention is to create a bootable USB stick
|
||||||
|
that can be used to boot a rescue system.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
All commands should be executed as root.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For more technical information, see the [notes section](#notes) at the end.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Grub will be used as the bootloader.
|
||||||
|
Install the following packages:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
apt install grub-efi-amd64-bin grub-efi-ia32-bin grub-pc-bin
|
||||||
|
apt install grub-efi-amd64-signed # grub-efi-ia32-signed not available on Ubuntu
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Partitioning
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* The GUIDs are fixed for easier setup with Windows
|
||||||
|
* The last partition is optional: it can be used to make changes of Ubuntu persistent
|
||||||
|
* Set the `dev` variable accordingly
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<!-- -->

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Format
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
* Run `partprobe` before working with the disk references below
|
||||||
|
* The labels are set for easier configuration of GRUB
|
||||||
|
* The first partition is not formatted as it will be used by GRUB to store its executable code

|
||||||
|
grub-install --root=$mnt --modules='ext2 part_gpt' --target=i386-pc $dev
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Place the following configuration snippets in `$mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Ubuntu
|
||||||
|
|

|
||||||
|
initrd /casper/initrd
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `persistent` parameter is only useful, if the persistence partition was created.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Windows
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
menuentry 'Windows (UEFI)' {

#### BCD
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Copy [winre-uefi.bcd](winre-uefi.bcd) and [winre-bios.bcd](winre-bios.bcd):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
cp winre-uefi.bcd $mnt/boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft/Boot/BCD
|
||||||
|
cp winre-bios.bcd $winre/Boot/BCD
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Windows Hybrid Boot
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Windows can not be booted from BIOS and UEFI with the same configuration.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The above procedure enables Windows to boot using UEFI.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Do *not* use `sgdisk` for MBR modifications,
|
||||||
|
because it wipes the MBR boot code of GRUB.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Boot from BIOS
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Windows needs an MBR to boot from BIOS:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
printf 'label-id:0x4b534944\n1,0x7fff,ee\n0x8000,0xf8000,27' | sfdisk -Y dos $dev
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you try to boot without the above configuration,
|
||||||
|
the following message appears in the blink of an eye:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
ata1 master: Unknown device
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Boot from UEFI
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Remove the hybrid MBR:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
printf 'label-id:0x00000000\n1,,ee' | sfdisk -Y dos $dev
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If you try to boot without the above configuration,
|
||||||
|
the following message appears:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
BlInitializeLibrary failed 0xc00000bb
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Notes
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Windows Bootloaders
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Windows bootloader is configured using a file called `BCD` (Boot Configuration Data).
|
||||||
|
The file is a binary Windows Registry file and references IDs from the partition table.
|
||||||
|
This can make Windows boot problems cumbersome to fix.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The above BCD files are usable if the disks were created using the described IDs.
|
||||||
|
They were created in a VM using BCDEdit:
|
||||||
|
[create-winre-uefi.bat](create-winre-uefi.bat) and
|
||||||
|
[create-winre-bios.bat](create-winre-bios.bat).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The UEFI bootloader `bootmgfw.efi` uses the disk and partition GUIDs from the GPT.
|
||||||
|
The BIOS bootloader `bootmgr` uses the disk signature and partition start offsets in the MBR.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To change GUIDs in a BCD, partitions with the same GUIDs can be recreated in a VM
|
||||||
|
and BCDEdit can be used to recreate a BCD: [create-minimal.bat](create-minimal.bat).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Alternatively `hivexsh` can be used to change the GUIDs in an existing BCD.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Casper Persistence
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The casper manual mentions the use of a file,
|
||||||
|
but this only works on FAT, see
|
||||||
|
[find_cow_device in casper-helpers](https://git.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/tree/scripts/casper-helpers).

# Introduction
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
This guide describes how to create a bootable medium
|
|
||||||
for the following purpose:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Boot in BIOS (Legacy/CSM) mode
|
|
||||||
* Boot in UEFI mode using Secure Boot
|
|
||||||
* Start Ubuntu or a Windows 7, 8, or 10 installation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Set the following variables accordingly:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
FULLDEV=/dev/sdb
|
|
||||||
DEV=${FULLDEV}1
|
|
||||||
MNT=/mnt
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Preparation
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Partition An Empty Medium
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
parted "$FULLDEV"
|
|
||||||
mklabel msdos
|
|
||||||
mkpart pri fat32 1MiB -1s
|
|
||||||
set 1 boot on
|
|
||||||
quit
|
|
||||||
mkdosfs -F 32 -R 8 "$DEV"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Create Directory Structure
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
See below for the config files `syslinux.cfg` and `grub.cfg`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
mount -o shortname=winnt "$DEV" "$MNT"
|
|
||||||
mkdir -p "$MNT"/boot/syslinux
|
|
||||||
mkdir -p "$MNT"/boot/grub
|
|
||||||
mkdir -p "$MNT"/efi/boot
|
|
||||||
cp syslinux.cfg "$MNT"/boot/syslinux
|
|
||||||
cp grub.cfg "$MNT"/boot/grub
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# BIOS
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
syslinux -i -d boot/syslinux "$DEV"
|
|
||||||
cd /usr/lib/syslinux
|
|
||||||
for f in libutil libcom32 menu chain; do cp modules/bios/$f.c32 "$MNT"/boot/syslinux; done
|
|
||||||
sh -c "cat mbr/mbr.bin > $FULLDEV"
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note: If a `Boot error` gets reported, try this:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Try a 3.xx version
|
|
||||||
* `mkdiskimage -4 $FULLDEV 0 64 32`
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# UEFI
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --uefi-secure-boot \
|
|
||||||
--efi-directory="$MNT" --boot-directory="$MNT"/boot \
|
|
||||||
--bootloader-id=boot --no-nvram "$DEV"
|
|
||||||
cp /usr/lib/shim/shim.efi.signed "$MNT"/efi/boot/bootx64.efi
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Note: Due to [a bug](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1450783),
|
|
||||||
the config file needs to be in efi/ubuntu:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
mkdir -p "$MNT"/efi/ubuntu
|
|
||||||
cp -a "$MNT"/efi/boot/grub.cfg "$MNT"/efi/ubuntu
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Copy OS files
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Ubuntu
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Execute the following commands in the directory of the mounted ISO:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
rsync -Pa casper preseed "$MNT"/
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Windows
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Execute the following commands in the directory of the mounted ISO:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
rsync -Pa sources boot efi "$MNT"/
|
|
||||||
rm "$MNT"/sources/ei.cfg # To enable Edition selection
|
|
||||||
cp bootmgr "$MNT"/boot
|
|
||||||
7z e -o"$MNT"/efi/microsoft/boot sources/boot.wim 1/Windows/Boot/EFI/bootmgfw.efi
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
When copying Windows 8, the default bootloader gets replaced. Install Shim again:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
cp /usr/lib/shim/shim.efi.signed "$MNT"/efi/boot/bootx64.efi
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
