Note - If the Oracle Linux 6.x OS was preinstalled, it was installed with the server set to Legacy BIOS Boot Mode. If you choose to boot the server in UEFI BIOS Boot Mode, the preinstalled image is not accessible. Therefore, if you want to use the Oracle Linux 6.x OS with the UEFI/ BIOS Boot Mode set to UEFI BIOS, you must perform a fresh installation of Oracle Linux 6.x.
