I am only now figuring out what UEFI means and what it has been doing to me over the years...

Right now I have a system that is failing.  The drive is fine.  I want to put the drive into an identical notebook.  But of course it is really not identical.  It does not have the same UEFI information.

I would need a tool that would get me the information from the dying system's UEFI store.  Then boot the new system with, say a liveCD image and set that system's UEFI store appropriately.  Then move the drive to the new system.

Are there tools for this in Fedora?  What about Windows 7, if that is what is on the new system (instead of booting with a liveCD image).

BTW, back in BIOS days, and with my armv7 SOC systems, my process was to build a drive on a test system, then just drop it in the production hardware in the rack.  No wonder swapping drives on my notebook has not worked...

thanks
