    Hi fellow UDOOers,

    I have received Udoo Bolt V8 a couple of weeks ago, installed Samsung 970 Pro NVMe and have been playing around with it.

    One idea that I had was to use the onboard eMMC for operating system and to utilize the hardware encryption capability of NVMe for data storage by using opal (sedutil toolkit).

    Unfortunately BIOS detects the locked drive regardless of the set boot order and always asks for the drive password which makes it impossible to boot without screen and keyboard attached.

    I’ve updated the BIOS version to 1.08 but it did not fix the issue.

    So the question would be is there a way to make Udoo Bolt boot from eMMC and completely ignore the locked NVMe so that later it would be possible SSH into it and unlock the drive remotely via command line?
