Prerequisites

  • 4GB (or larger) USB drive (this will be referred to as USB 1)
  • Rufus Utility
  • BIOS Image (Modded BIOS EFI Toolkit)
  • USB Hub
  • USB Keyboard and Mouse
  • Computer with Windows XP or newer

    • Your 4GB USB drive will be formatted! Backup any data on it before proceeding.

    Download the BIOS System Image with EFI toolkit and Rufus Utility to your PC from Downloads section on the left


    Step 1

    Extract the IMG file from the img.gz BIOS Image using WinRAR, 7zip, unzip, etc.


    Step 2

    Open Rufus Utility


    Step 3

    In the "Device" box, select USB 1.


    Step 4

    Click the "Select" button and select the atomicpi-bios.img file you extracted. (Modded BIOS+EFI Toolkit)


    Step 5

    Select option "GPT" in the "Partition type" selection box.


    Step 6

    Click "Start" button at the bottom of the window. Select "Yes" and/or "Ok" for any other messages you get.


    Once the green progress bar at the bottom says "READY", unplug USB 1 from your PC and insert them into your Atomic Pi along with a keyboard and mouse. (A USB hub may be required)

    Step 7

    Turn on your Atomic Pi by plugging it into power, then immediately press the F7 key until you see a blue and white list, this may require multiple tries.


    Step 8

    Select USB 1 and press enter.


    Step 9

    The Atomic Pi should now boot to TianoCore EFI Shell, enter "fs0:" and press enter, then enter "dir" and press enter. You should see your BIOS files listed, if not then run "fs1:" then "dir" and repeat "dir" command and checking for files, if your files still do not show up, repeat with "fs2:", "fs3:", etc


    Step 10

    Once "dir" shows the BIOS files on your USB, run command "fpt64.efi -f mod_atomicpi_12_final.bin" and wait 5-10 minutes until you see a blinking cursor. If you do not see a blinking cursor after 1 hour, seek support from the Atomic Pi Discord. (Above)


    Step 11

    After you see a blinking cursor, enter "reset" and the system should restart to the BIOS, It may hang/freeze during POST, and may even fail to POST. This is normal, let it sit for 1-2 minutes and press the RTC reset button on your Atomic Pi.


    Step 12

    Verify your new BIOS is working properly and reinstall your OS!


    Step 14

    Done! Plug in your Atomic Pi, it will start the newly installed operating system.
