  • ReBarUEFI

    Resizable BAR for (almost) any UEFI system

    • Project mention: Resizable BAR for almost any UEFI system | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-08

  • RPi4

    Raspberry Pi 4 UEFI Firmware Images

    • Project mention: CentOS Stream and Raspberry Pi | /r/redhat | 2023-07-03

    Correct. It does not as shipped. However, the use of this project will bring the firmware into system ready spec, so it can boot with a standard aarch64 UEFI image: https://github.com/pftf/RPi4

  • mitnal

    Twitter client for UEFI

    • Project mention: An IRC Client in your motherboard | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-05

    Looking forward to ditching these bloated operating systems with all this cruft I I do not need for something smaller and simpler: UEFI. Not to mention faster startup. Easier "embedded" development.

    Of course I am joking. Sort of.

    As a minimalist I do not need a GUI or a mouse. It seems UEFI already has more than I need.

    Here is the Twitter client mentioned:

  • EfiFs

    EFI FileSystem drivers

    • Project mention: How to Boot ISO Files from GRUB2 Boot Loader | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-16

    See also UEFI drivers that can read a bunch of other file systems (btrfs, ext2/3/4, HFS, ISO, NTFS, UFS/FFS, XFS, ZFS, etc):

    * https://github.com/pbatard/efifs

    The UEFI spec specifies (§13.3) that firmware is only required to read FAT32/16/12, which is generally why your /boot/efi is VFAT/FAT32.

  • edk2-rk3588

    EDK2 UEFI firmware for Rockchip RK3588 platforms

    • Project mention: Radxa Rock 5 ITX: 8-Core ARM Mini ITX Board with LPDDR5 RAM | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-15

    FWIW, there is a port of EDK2 to the RK3588, which is what powers this board. Most of the peripherals work. So that's nice. But the thing is, it isn't UEFI so much as the device-tree/ACPI distinction you need to be mindful of. You can use either DTBs or ACPI to boot Linux on this device, though. https://github.com/edk2-porting/edk2-rk3588
