UEFI Bootloader on LS Processors

About This Training

This session describes the unified extensible firmware interface (UEFI) bootloader on LS series processors (LS1043A board) and how we can migrate from U-Boot bootloader to the UEFI bootloader on the LS processors. This session also showcases how it can be used to boot a CentOS distribution using GRUB2 bootloader. For loading the CentOS kernel and RFS images we demonstrate PXE boot (boot over network) method. After the session you will understand a standard chained bootloading architecture which is extensively used to support embedded distributions like CentOS, Ubuntu and ONIE, among others.
