Error: Reboot and Select proper Boot device

How to help your AVADO to Boot from the proper disk.

❓ Why This Happens

This error occurs when the BIOS fails to recognize the AVADO OS boot disk and selects the wrong device to start from. This can sometimes happen after a power outage, hardware changes, or BIOS resets.

✅ How to Fix It

Follow these steps to manually select the correct boot device in the BIOS:

🛠 Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Connect a Keyboard and Monitor

    • Plug a USB keyboard into your AVADO device.

    • Connect a screen via HDMI.

  2. Enter the BIOS

    • Power on (or restart) your AVADO device.

    • Hold down the ESC key on the keyboard immediately as the device starts up.

    • This will bring up the BIOS menu.

  3. Navigate to the Boot Settings

    • Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move to the tab on the far right (usually labeled Boot or similar).

    • Scroll down to the section called "BIOS Boot" or "Boot Option Priorities."

  4. Select the Correct Boot Device

    • Highlight the second option in the list (this is typically the AVADO OS disk).

    • Press Enter to select it.

  5. Save and Exit

    • Navigate to the Exit tab or press the key indicated to Save & Exit (often F10).

    • Confirm when prompted.

✅ What Happens Next

  • Your AVADO device should now boot from the correct disk.

  • You’ll see the AVADO upload screen appear on your monitor.
