Comment on My homelab had the stupidest outage ever
MangoPenguin@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 month agoSome BIOS manufacturers allow you to disable all halts on errors.
That will be reset to default if the CMOS battery is dead and power is removed though.

Not on a flash based motherboard (so basically almost everything recent). On modern systems usually the only thing the battery powers is the clock, which is why they have a separate reset to defaults header/button/switch.
(The CMOS memory of old is replaced with flash memory, al la SD Card or flash drive)
