As Arch-wiki entries are some times too theoretical and offer little practical solution assistance, and since booting uefi systems has caused headaches to users in most linux installations, we dedicate this section as a supplement to the Arch entry. The article is based on a contribution by marianarlt, who has developed a high level of expertise in setting up the bootloader for various UEFI capable or non-Bios systems.

Conclusion
|
||||
|
||||
<p>As you see the complicated part with bootloaders in general is the system setup itself. Instructing the bootloader can be a one liner in an UEFI configuration. The Joborun team hopes that this was of help to you. Further information and discussion can be found in <a href=https://www.reddit.com/r/joborun>the Joborun Forum</a>.</p>

## Foot Notes##

Foot Notes
|
||||
|
||||
<p id="foot-1"><small>[1] To boot your live media in UEFI mode go into your motherboards boot menu after pressing the power button on your PC. This is specific to your motherboard and often shows briefly on the first screen that appears after pressing the power button. Most times it is one of the function Key F1 or F12 (hp is F9) key. Inside your motherboard's boot menu choose to run your live medium with UEFI. The entry will literally say "UEFI" and the device name (most probably disk name or a USB flash drive).
|
||||
If after booting your live medium you're still unsure you may issue <code>`ls -lh /sys/firmware/efi/efivars`</code>. If booted in UEFI mode this command will print a lot of names with long numbers, with BIOD/legacy booting it will print nothing.</small></p>
