- E39M5S62 3y agoI originally wrote ZFSBootMenu as a reaction to how awful Grub is. I was hacking on the Grub scripts and hitting all sorts of limitations that were just awful to work around (or not possible at all). I used Grub to chain load early versions of ZBM before I had the whole UEFI application build process worked out.
