New --uri option enables to specify a URI when creating a network boot entry, e.g. # efibootmgr -L NetBoot -i enp7s0 --uri http://foobar/grubx64.efi This requires support in libefiboot, which is provided by version 39 of efivar. Signed-off-by: Renaud Métrich <rmetrich@redhat.com>

Hello, can I ask how this is supposed to work? Do I specify HTTP EFI Boot URL via DHCPv4 stack so the system will boot it after the next reboot? Will it do just once, or is this permanent change? Can I use this also to PXE EFI? And most importantly - is this supported by all systems or some kind of extension? |
