I use Refind for this sort of thing and it has (thus far!) survived upgrades. The only "gotcha" is that I had a Windows 10 "Feature" upgrade that reset the default boot in the firmware to Windows; it didn't damage anything but did require that I go reset the UEFI default to boot the Refind EFI loader instead of the Windows one. -- Karl Denninger k...@denninger.net <mailto:k...@denninger.net> /The Market Ticker/ /[S/MIME encrypted email preferred]/
