theking@kitsunes.club@coolbean what’s uboot? I’ve heard of it before, but I thought it was more of a bios thing than a bootloader/manager? Also refind seems silly since this isn’t going to be a dual boot or anything

@theking Why not a Thinkpad called "Thinkpad" or is that too meta? 
You absolutely should call it "twinkpad" though, that would be awesome...

GRUB, only because it can be themed
If it was me, I would prefer to use SystemD-Boot, but it doesn't have theming, or any graphical look configuration, at least as what I know

Maybe "BrainsTLK", because that would be what Brains would transform if he appeared on The Last Knight (He previously transformed into a ThinkPad Edge in his appearances in Dark of the Moon)

theking@kitsunes.club@AlanyG21 ah, but isn’t the Thinkpad edge notoriously bad?

Maybe, but I meant something referencing the Transformers movies, not the quality of the ThinkPad

BTW, I checked and the exact model that Brains transforms into is the ThinkPad Edge E420s. Also that he appeared in his Cybertronian form in Age of Extinction
Here's his appearance, if you wanted to see it

coolbean (account has been reverted to before we moved back to this instance)
coolbeanwhich is kinda the point, if you dont dualboot, why have a seperate bootloader at all? refind, systemd-boot and grub all do the same thing, just with different tradeoffs in the configuration department (systemd-boot is easier to configure manually, grub offers more visual customisation, with refind offering even better visuals among some other goodies like supporting more file systems)
i just dont recommend efistubs cause the level of support is *heavily* dependent on your distro (void for example failed to create its boot entry a few weeks ago, but had already deleted the old one it meant to replace, leading to an unbootable pc),
whereas if your platform uses uboot and is supported, itll often be a better experience

@theking systemd-boot, it’s too damn small and simple to break
