// not exactly sure how it works under the hood, but if it’s just an EFI program i think i can just copy it to a fat32 drive and the firmware would boot to it? or did you need to perform GRUB sorcery to make it run?

@kuriko yup, directly booting this from EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI now, I only wanted grub for the funny boot entry :neocat_laugh:

I don't publish UEFI builds on files.kiesel.dev but the one I used is here: http://f.sakamoto.pl/linus/kiesel/bootx64.efi

@linus firefox gave me a security warning upon downloading this file -- turns out it's because it's an http link on a https page, instead of it being an EFI application :neocat_woozy:

a laptop running Kiesel (javascript engine), using EFI application (no operating system)
