I'm not sure why you couldn't just run it in a VM.
- CyberShadow 10y agoPerhaps because the OS-specific component (UEFIFind.exe) requires access to the real hardware?
- chme 10y agoUEFIFind would be available for other platforms too: https://github.com/LongSoft/UEFITool https://github.com/LongSoft/UEFITool
- chme 10y agoOk, thats an option. But I am not sure it its worth the effort. Normally if I discover some interesting project, that I want to try out, I just check it out in /tmp, run it and then decide if I want to continue using it and install it or just remove it. Setting up a ~20GB VM takes time and diskspace. Also I looked at the source for a bit and from what I see it only needs the winapi to set the title of a console window, so in theory it should be platform independent if that is removed. Not sure it is, because it does a lot of other stuff. Just as I said, nice project, but I am afraid its not for me in its current state.
