 emily | the actual solution is for someone to just implement reading the UEFI ZBOOT header in U-Boot. the actual solution is for everyone to just use UEFI | 12:41:51 |
| emily | but I take what I can get | 12:41:54 |
| emily | (x86 doesn't use it btw) | 12:43:30 |
 dramforever | yeah bzImage will be here forever | 12:43:54 |
| dramforever | ready to ask you to use a bootloader | 12:44:09 |
| emily | the reason I am not just using the actual target names is because .uefi should be bzImage or vmlinuz.efi and .legacy should be bzImage or zImage or etc. | 12:44:26 |
| emily | but that means I have to make decisions about platforms I know little about and it's annoying | 12:44:45 |
| dramforever | i remember there's some nonsense in the loongarch64 make target names | 12:45:11 |
| dramforever | in the most infuriating way possible | 12:45:29 |
| dramforever | or was it just the file name | 12:45:49 |
| emily | they have vmlinux.elf | 12:46:01 |
| emily | which is not vmlinux | 12:46:02 |
| emily | it's irrelevant though since they're vmlinuz.efi all the way, so they're one of the arches that are my friend | 12:46:17 |
| emily | no intention of adding non-UEFI to things we didn't already support it ofr | 12:46:34 |
| emily | * no intention of adding non-UEFI to things we didn't already support it for | 12:46:35 |
| dramforever | oh thank fuck they unfucked it (iiuc) https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/426834 | 12:47:12 |
| emily | the Linux "installation scripts" are very silly and pointless | 12:47:44 |
| emily | I am literally replacing them with cp | 12:47:48 |
