ASAHI-BLESS(1)

✨ NAME ✨

asahi-bless β€” bestie, this is the little tool that lists your boot volumes and picks which one is the active one on Apple Silicon Macs πŸ’–

Like, it's literally a <pink>User Commands</pink> girly. One of the cool ones.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

asahi-bless [OPTIONS]

That's it. That's the whole vibe. Options go in, magic comes out ✨


πŸ’… OPTIONS πŸ’…

Okay so here's the full rundown, no skips, no cuts, we're doing all of them:

  • -d, --device <DEVICE> β€” the path to the nvram device. Yes, that device. Point her at it πŸŽ€
  • -n, --next β€” sets the boot volume for the next boot only. Like, one-time thing, not a commitment. Very demure, very mindful 🌸
  • -l, --list-volumes β€” lists all the boot volume candidates. Your lil roster of options, bestie πŸ‘‘
  • --set-boot <NAME_OR_INDEX> β€” picks the boot volume by name or by index, exactly as it showed up when you ran --list-volumes. And heads up: if you don't pass this option at all, the program just drops into interactive mode instead πŸ™ˆ
  • --set-boot-macos β€” sets the boot volume to macOS, but only if it's unambiguous. If it's giving ambiguous, it's not doing it, bestie πŸ’€
  • -y, --yes β€” skips the confirmation prompt. No asking, just doing. Main character energy ⚑
  • --get-boot β€” gets the currently selected boot target. And plot twist: you can combine it with --next to show the next boot target instead πŸ‘€
  • --clear-next β€” clears whatever next boot target was selected. Poof. Gone. Clean slate ✨
  • -h, --help β€” prints help 🫢
  • -V, --version β€” prints version 🏷️

and that's the whole page, bestie!! go forth and bless those boot volumes πŸ’–

this lil cutie is part of asahi-bless, dated April 2025 β€” mwah, sending love, hope your boot target is always unambiguous πŸŒˆπŸ’…
