Public bug reported: Right now even on modern systems with UEFI, Ubuntu is booted via grub2 bootloader. This is slow, error-prone and completely unnecessary. Would be much better and faster to make GNU/Linux kernel bootable directly by UEFI firmware. This would also simplify dual-boot setups.
An example of how to pass kernel command-line parameters is shown in: http://harald.hoyer.xyz/2015/02/25/single-uefi-executable-for-kernelinitrdcmdline/ ** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1526824 Title: boot on uefi directly instead of grub To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-meta/+bug/1526824/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
