I wish systemd-boot had implemented a BIOS shim somehow, since we're still stuck with grub for most cloud providers and other non-UEFI capable setups. Basically something that BIOS boots into a UEFI loader-esque so it uses the same path for everything, similar to how ARM can "UEFI boot".
- paulfurtado 4y agoFWIW on AWS, all nitro instance types can boot as UEFI if the AMI has itself set to use UEFI and all arm64 instances only support UEFI. So if you stick to modern instance types, you can happily use UEFI in AWS. GCP looks like it does UEFI too. And Azure Gen2 instances use UEFI too.
- secondcoming 4y agoWhat difference does it make what boot loader cloud providers use?
- pabs3 4y agoISTR there is work on making GRUB do that.
