BIOS Boot problems after installing image
When i get a fresh laptop from Dell it comes with a preinstalled image and when you start and boot into Bios the option Windows Boot Manager is the first choice for booting.
Then i proceed to install my customized image and after this is done and rebooting the boot option changes to the SSD in the bios meny and this option shows up as the last choice for booting which leads the laptop into a endless installation loop since it boots on the network.
When i manually choose SSD and Windows gets booted the first time - Windows Boot Manager shows up again and is still first choice in the bios menu.
Since the SSD doesnt show as a boot option when Dells preinstalled image is visable in bios i cant edit the priority of this before I proceed to install my own image. Anyone have any ideas?
Cheers

What model system is this, and what OS is on your image?

Ive tried this on a Latitude 5490 & XPS 9370. Same issue. The image is a Windows 10 1703.

Hi,
Newly added boot options will be added to the end of the list. If you use a system like SCCM, MDT, WDS or scripts to deploy your image, you can use Dell's CCTK tool to change the bootorder (cctk.exe bootorder --sequence=hdd,embnic). In this example, the SSD boots before the NICs, just like you want. Remember to execute this step after you configure and partition the UEFI disk!
