<p class="MsoNormal">I have a unusual problem with UEFI<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a lab of 20+ PCs which is used continuously – each student uses a numbered “Caddied” hard drive for their installation exercises<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this way we can have several classes doing installation exercises consecutively.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Problem… If “BIOS” (I know it’s not ) is in UEFI mode the system records all the previous installations as if it were a multiple boot system.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, as the other installations no longer exist, if you click a previous installation in error, the OS is not found…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Switching to “Legacy Only” mode allows the caddied drives to operate normally.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">However, Is this the only way? Can /UEFI be configured to accept multiple, dismountable drives?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any help in setting up a stable environment for this lab would be appreciated<o:p></o:p></p>
