Gigabyte BRIX M.2 boot option issue

[kirko7]

Hello,
So I bought this bare-bone Brix GB-BKi3HA-7100
http://www.gigabyte.com/Mini-PcBarebone/GB-BKi3HA-7100-rev-10#support-doc

Got the suggested parts and I'm having issue setting M.2 SATA as #1 boot option. It's simply not there. I only have "UEFI: Built-in EFI Shell" option.

But I do see "INTEL SSD 80.0GB" in M.2 SATA Port under "SATA and RST Config" tab.

Could you please advice on what has to be done to make this work? Thanks!

Is it a PCI-E M.2, or SATA M.2? Intel 600p is PCI-E.

Have you already tried installing Windows via a USB install stick? Was the M.2 SSD not detected by the OS installer? The OS installer will register a boot entry with the UEFI, of "Windows Boot Loader" after it is installed. That may be why it's not showing up yet.

Edit: I think that I see both M.2 SATA and M.2 PCI-E SSDs in the QVL PDF, so it appears that your Brix unit will accept either?

Maybe you need to play around with Legacy / UEFI settings? What OS are you trying to install?
