**Optional SSD:**

If a SSD is installed, it is internally connected via a SATA3 controller.  It is recommended to use a SATA3 SSD, as some older SATA2 SSD's may not reliably boot, quite possibly only an issue in isolated cases with older SATA2 SSD's with old firmware.

\\
**BIOS Setup via Serial Port:**

First, configure your serial terminal program to support ANSI color and 115200 baud.  If you are using minicom be sure to add the ' ''-c on'' ' option to the minicom command line, otherwise the ANSI colors will not be distinguishable in the BIOS Setup screen.

!!Note ->!! Leave ''Bits per second -> 115200'' for AstLinux 1.3.0 and later.

Second, on startup after you hear the beep and some text, type <TAB> to enter the BIOS Setup, go to the "Advanced" -> "Serial Port Console Redirection" .  Make the following changes...

  * ''Bits per second -> 19200''
  * ''Redirection After BIOS POST -> Bootloader''


The results should like the following screen...

Finally, save the above BIOS changes, reboot, and reconfigure you serial terminal program if you changed the baud rate.
