Resolving the Issue of Restart Getting Stuck at A0 Self-Test while Shutdown Works Normally This had been bothering me for a very long time. Shutting down and then powering on works fine, but a direct restart gets stuck at the BIOS self-test, showing A0. Analysis I found that the machine could restart normally without the mechanical hard drive installed, but the problem appeared once it was installed. My suspicion was that the hard drive was partitioned into only a single partition like /dev/sdx, without partitioned entries such as /dev/sdx1.

Linux: Mount OneDrive Cloud Drive with Rclone I believe I am not the only one. To save money, many people pick the basic server configuration when choosing a server, leaving only a pitiful few tens of GB of storage, or even just 10 GB. But sometimes you really do need a larger storage space. At such times, cloud drives that provide APIs — OneDrive, Google Drive and the like — can be mounted onto the server and used as local storage, which to some extent helps relieve our storage anxiety. ...
