I think windows ARM laptops use UEFI?
- ChocolateGod 1y agoThey do, Windows Phone even use UEFI (not sure was completely compliant) back in the day.
- Arnavion 1y agopublicmail was asking about ACPI vs DT, not UEFI. Using UEFI and ACPI/DT are orthogonal; DT-using devices can also boot from UEFI if the firmware provides it. See https://github.com/TravMurav/dtbloader https://github.com/TravMurav/dtbloader for example.
- thebeardisred 1y agoThis is explicitly what we're doing in RHEL with the P550. We use u-boot and it's EFI capabilities to init grub (instead of another instance of u-boot)
- ChocolateGod 1y agoWhy not use systemd-boot?
- pantalaimon 1y agolooks like they still require a custom device tree to boot Linux
