    This is one of the best IT explanations for any topic that I have ever had explained. You disassemble and explain each
    piece and trace it beautifully. And I'm a university professor! I have subscribed.

    Once you located your ESP partition, you can mount it and check what's in it.

    This is by far the best explanation of Linux UEFI boot Diego. I just have one question - is NVRAM an alternative to ROM where BIOS code is stored?. I asked this because - in MBR based booting, when the POST checks (stored in BIOS in ROM) are done, it looks up the partition table in MBR for stage 1 bootloader which in turn loads the stage 2 bootloader. So going by this explanation, NVRAM seems to be quite similar to ROM. Kindly clarify this and also let me know if my understanding of MBR booting is correct😊

      Thank you!
      And to be honest, I'm no expert in hardware, so I don't know the differences between NVRAM and ROM.

    I've got 2 nvme drives in my laptop (Windows and Linux). Is it possible to move the EFI from one to the other?

    Interesting video but man, you have a seriously noisy keyboard. How can you stand all that noise??

    • @itz_premium

      Mechanical keyboards are very clacky and tactile. Some people like them noisy... Some just like the 'action' of mechanical keys and will put dampening gaskets/o-rings on the mounting shaft of the keys to make them quieter. I agree it sounds like our guy found the loudest mechanical board or he put his mic too close to it
