My main laptop (Asus G750) appears to have NVRAM (non-volatile random access memory).
This seems to interfere with booting the computer following removal of the HDD or SSD containing the operating system, and swapping it for another drive with a different operating system. This problem (and its solution) was previously discussed at https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/tutor...y-enabled/ (see Section F – problem 1). What I would like to know is how to avoid the above problem altogether. Put simply, is there a either a command line or GUI method for clearing NVRAM of its stored boot options, before I swap the the drives (containing the different operating systems)?
Many thanks in advance for any help on this one.
