BOOTBOOT UEFI Implementation
|
|
|
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See [BOOTBOOT Protocol](https://gitlab.com/bztsrc/bootboot) for common details.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
On [UEFI machines](http://www.uefi.org/), the PCI Option ROM is created from the standard EFI
|
|
|
|
|
OS loader application.

IRQs masked. GDT unspecified, but valid, IDT unset. Code is running in supervisor mode in ring 0.

File system drivers

For boot partition, UEFI version relies on any file system that's supported by EFI Simple File System Protocol.

Installation
|
|
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. *UEFI disk*: copy __bootboot.efi__ to **_FS0:\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI_**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. *UEFI ROM*: use __bootboot.rom__ which is a standard **_PCI Option ROM image_**.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. *GRUB*, *UEFI Boot Manager*: add __bootboot.efi__ to boot options.
