Noble goal, but I want to point out that ARM recommends using UEFI as the standard way to boot. Then you can just boot whatever popular distro you want without weird tweaks. I’m not a fan of EFI but I think the downsides are less bad these days.
- MartijnBraam 5y agoThis implements EFI.
- als0 5y agoThanks I hadn’t realised from the post. Makes sense.
- StillBored 5y agoSorta, UEFI is a lot more complete than the small part of the spec that uboot implements. Put another way, its not yet a spec compliant implementation.
- ykedfgjhdfg 5y agouefi isn't a piece of software, it's an interface. tow-boot is one such implementation of this interface
