fwiw the number cited for finland here does not appear in any statfi publication i could find, with homicides in general being under 2/100,000 every year since 2009 and averaging 1.34 between 2010 and 2022
gun homicides in 2022 totalled 10 + 107 suicides in a population of 5.56 million
other numbers found in published research for firearm homicides specifically, varying in year reported, floated around 0.5 and 1.5
either someone included suicides in the homicide rate in this image or the figures are entirely made up, in either case i would not trust any figures herein whatsoever as they are clearly inaccurate

no, each system can add its own efi entry and you can use the motherboard firmware (or the efibootmgr utility) to choose the next one to boot or modify their default order like you used to do with drives in BIOS times
What ever works, I usually just use what comes with my distro. When I used Arch I used GRUB until the whole fiasco where Arch broke it, then I started to use systemd-boot.
Using grub in graphical mode has horrible input lag on my laptop for some reason. Like a full 2 seconds between a keypress and the cursor moving. I used text mode for a bit, but then i switched to syslinux, which just works.

Only when you're a moron like the poster above and have absolutely no clue about what consequences your actions will have.
Grub never breaks.
Nice pointless links!
Now post the direct link to a bug report where os-prober (or GRUB) breaks LUKS.
Yeah I have the same issue. Grub can be kinda annoying but it's the easiest to just go with.

GRUB because it's the best Libreboot payload, and most others don't support BIOS.
There is no good open source UEFI implementation. >but muh TianoCore!

Which one is fastest?
Well I don't know. That's why I made a thread.
booting the kernel directly with efistub is the fastest.
if you really need a bootloader, then use systemd-boot since it's bloat-free.
Does systemd-boot have an option for saving the last selected menu entry and starting with it selected the next boot? I need it for Windows.
Answering my own question: yes, it does.
>default
>A glob pattern to select the default entry.
>If set to "@saved" the chosen entry will be saved as an EFI variable on every boot and automatically selected the next time the boot loader starts.
I dont know how to setup the swap file with efistub
How do you even setup efistub?
You need to set it as an option when compiling the kernel.
syslinux
Interestingly, Nigeria has a similar homicide rate, 21.7 per 100k.

is that michael foucoo?
Does this include police that murder civilians?
That would be tiny. Total homicides by police are something like 1000 per year, and most of that is justified (so not murder).

grub, it has never failed me. To be honest, I reboot maybe 12 times a year on average.
>12 times a year
You mean 0.033333 times a day?

EFISTUB is only an option when not dual booting, right?
no, each system can add its own efi entry and you can use the motherboard firmware (or the efibootmgr utility) to choose the next one to boot or modify their default order like you used to do with drives in BIOS times
You're telling me there are 3 layers now? Instead of BIOS's
1. Motherboard's boot device selection
2. Bootloader's boot entry selection
It's this in EFI?
1. Motherboard's boot device selection
2. Motherboard's bootloader selection
3. Bootloader's boot entry selection
In your UEFI example, 1 and 2 are the same thing.
Thanks, I think I get it now.

At Tesco.

GNU Grub, it works and works really well, systemd-boot is fine but I like grub's ability to use themes and wallpapers so I didn't use it that much.
grub also supports pc speaker output so you can make your computer beep amogus every time you turn it on if you eant your neighbours to hate you

What's the point of a bootloader? I can post on IRC from UEFI. I don't need an operating system, let alone a bootloader to start it.
Can you shitpost on IQfy from UEFI too?

EFISTUB to Arch Linux
What ever works, I usually just use what comes with my distro. When I used Arch I used GRUB until the whole fiasco where Arch broke it, then I started to use systemd-boot.

BasedstemD is what I use, Limine is cool because it's minimal but only supports ext file systems, rEFInd can be cool and useful, GRUB is just bloated

do 4chingz users even realize they're chimps with keyboards? i don't think they do. fricking keyboard monkeys.
In the end, we are all monkeys with keyboards.

I am not a monkey.
Systemd-boot has been pretty cool in the distros I've used it on. I'm waiting for openSUSE support for it (better than now)

because on my old rig, I can boot DOS, 98SE, 2000, XP, 7, all from a single physical drive

For me, it's honestly systemd-boot.
I've used grub for 15 years. It just works.

>Grub for PXE booting
>Grub for UEFI booting
>Grub for BIOS booting
It just works.
Limine boot protocol is so cool. Probably won't catch on, thoughbeit.
are there multiple people on this board that think that's an actual word or is it just you?
hello newfriend
I use rEFInd, I like it
systemd-boot. I chose it because I love other software from the systemd project, and I trust them to make good decisions.
systemd-boot, which I only ever remember as "gummiboot"
syslinux on legacy bios, systemd-boot on uefi.
special case goes to using grub with libreboot because of full disk encryption shenanigans.

>install OS-Proper into GRUB

DO NOT USE OS-PROPER. IT WILL BREAK YOUR ENCRYPTION. JUST USE WINDOWS THROUGH WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER
What is OS Proper? Is this some distro?
it's so grub can recognize Windows (and maybe MacOS) partitions to boot from
Ah, you mean os-prober. That's weird, I use it with encryption and it works.
