    I had the same problem until I learned motherboards tend to prioritize the top usb slots or specific ones for the boot process. Switching to those fixed it for me. Any such luck?

      I did try that but unfortunately it didn’t work on my system. There is also an option for the systemctl reboot command that I haven’t tried yet but plan to next time I need to get into the BIOS. IIRC it’s “–firmware-setup”. It’s supposed to reboot you into the BIOS, but whether it works or not depends on if your hardware supports it.

        I think if your bios doesn’t recognize USB peripherals it’s not gonna be UEFI compatible.
