Bug ID: 496317
Summary: Add a menu to one shot boot into another boot
entry/firmware
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Session Management
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: k...@dragonic.eu
CC: natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
Target Milestone: 1.0
This is a minor feature request: In the reboot countdown screen, it would be
very comfortable if under the "Restart Now" and "Cancel" there would be an
"Advanced" dropdown that, when clicked, pauses the countdown and prompts what
to reboot into:
- The default would be to "Restart normally" that just restarts as it always
does,
- If the system boots in UEFI mode, "Enter UEFI setup screen" to get into the
UEFI setup (like System Settings -> Session -> Desktop Session -> After next
restart: Enter UEFI setup screen checkbox, just more convenient),
- If the system boots from a supported bootloader and its userspace tooling is
present, a list of boot options normally presented in the boot menu. For
example, systemd-boot offers a plain, single-level list of boot options
listable with `bootctl list --json pretty`, which then you can boot into once
with `bootctl set-oneshot <ID>`. The options presented in the menu depend on
what the user has available, for example "Arch Linux (linux-lts)", "Windows
11", "EFI Shell", and so on.
