hello,
I don’t know if this is the right place to ask this question but could someone explain me how a UEFI system boots, I couldn’t find a guide online. I want to know because I don’t understand certain GRUB commands and how it get installed.
I just copy paste commands from Arch wiki and it just magically works without me knowing anything about it.
all the different distros use different grub command parameter and it’s so confusing. eg, Arch and Gentoo.
Arch command: grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=esp --bootloader-id=GRUB Gentoo command: grub-install --efi-directory=/efi
why both command is different? exactly where does grub gets installed?
sorry if this is a naive question but i really don’t understnad GRUB.
Which bootloader would you suggest for UEFI system?
Thanks for the reply
They specifically called out a suggestion which was even formatted so you couldn’t miss it even if you weren’t reading closely.
Systemd-boot is the simplest, it just works.
