# TO BE REMOVED BY NEXT RELEASE >8.0.0
## TO BE REMOVED BY NEXT RELEASE >8.4.0
Nov 21 2024
After significant work and continuous upgrades and modifications we
have decided that limine is adopting systemd kind of logic where a distribution
should adopt to limine instead of limine being adoptable by the system.
As far as we are concerned grub is by far a much more unix like bootloader
while limine attempts linux to adopt to Microsoft standards, even for BIOS
Legacy MBR based installations.
### DISCONTINUED
But feel free to experiment by using the arch extra/limine pkg

## NOTE: this is under construction, several discrepancies, missing explanations, and
clarifications have been reported and it will soon be edited and corrected - our apologies but documentation on limine is both scarce and contradictory when and where it is found.
Best source we see at the moment is gentoo, arch is very contradictory to its uefi /efi partitioning scheme, limine will NOT work that way.
