[$] Giving bootloaders the boot with nmbl
lundi 8 juillet 2024, 20:10 , par LWN.net
At DevConf.cz 2024,
Marta Lewandowska gave a talk to discuss a new approach for booting Linux systems, 'No more boot loader: Please use the kernel instead'. The talk, available on YouTube, introduced a new project called nmbl (for 'no more bootloader', pronounced 'nimble'). The idea is to get rid of bootloaders (e.g., GNU GRUB) with a Unified Kernel Image (UKI) that removes the need for a separate bootloader altogether. It is early days for nmbl, currently the project is only being tested for use with virtual machines, but the idea is compelling. If successful, nmbl could offer security, performance, and maintenance benefits compared to GRUB and other separate bootloaders.
