I have no idea where the *424f files came from or why one of them has the highest priority.
The "BootOrder: 0002,0000,0001" line tells you the priority. First it'll try the last one. Then it'll try the first one. Lastly it'll try the middle one.
Of course, if one of the entries tries to boot, that going to be a success as far as the motherboard's handover is concerned. Even if Linux then fails to *continue* booting.
It's more a case of "any response?" rather than "successful."
