Performing a Factory Reset from BIOS (Oracle Linux for MICROS)

To perform system recovery from the BIOS:

  1. Enter the BIOS.
    1. Connect a USB keyboard to the Workstation 6.
    2. Power on or restart the workstation.
    3. Press F2 immediately after pressing the power button and before the BIOS splash screen. You can press F2 repeatedly until the Configuration Utility starts. If the workstation boots into the operating system without starting the utility, restart the workstation and try again.
  2. On the Advanced tab, use the arrow keys to select Special Configuration, and then press Enter.
  3. Select Factory Recovery, and then press Enter.
  4. Select Enabled, and then press Enter.
  5. Press F10, select Yes, and then press Enter to save the configuration changes and exit the configuration utility. The Workstation 6 automatically restarts.
  6. The workstation reboots and the “Entering Recovery Mode” message appears.
  7. When the message “The system will reset Oracle Linux to Factory Default……Are you sure to continue? (Y/N)” appears, type y, and then press Enter.
  8. After the recovery process completes, the workstation reboots to the Oracle Linux for MICROS mini-setup.
