My BIOS only likes Windows and Linux.

While on Linux, I could update to new kernel version, regenerate initramfs,
update-grub,... no problems.

On OI, if I changed /etc/system or there was an system update which requires
regeneration of the boot image, after reboot, the system stopped booting.

Everything I could see is a blank screen with A2 in the bottom right corner of the screen.

The only solution is unplug all of the disks on the system and boot again. It will
print 99 or 9C error code.

Attach a live usb stick of MX Linux and tried to boot again. It could boot now.

After this fine boot, I could reattach the disks and booted only ONCE into OI. The
next time the above steps have to be repeated.

Between those steps, reset button doesn't work. The only thing work is a full power off (unplug the cable). It's the only way to turn off the system and try to
boot again.

Too tired. I removed the OI disk from the system.

After a successful boot into MX Linux, with a update-grub command, the system now
boot fine without any problems.

The same trouble also happened with BSDs, not just OI.

Secure Boot is always turned off.

I'm out of ideas other than just say goodbye.
A stab in the dark here. But does your BIOS have/offer a
(legacy) CSM? You might also try to change the order of
the attempts:

legacy
(u)efi

or reversed

(u)efi
lagacy

Just thought I'd mention it in case it helps. :-)

Perhaps I'm not being missed.
