gummiboot Description

gummiboot is an open source command-line software that provides a simple, text-mode UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) boot manager for Linux-based operating systems. The software is designed to execute configured EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) images and it can run only from an EFI system partition (ESP). It also reads generic and simple bootloader configuration files. It supports configurations in the UTF-8 and 7-bit ASCII encodings, supports boot delay in seconds (timeout), as well as a custom boot splash image. gummiboot is a next-generation bootloader that replaces GRUB, LILO and other BIOS Legacy boot loaders, in favor of the modern UEFI specification.
