💖 UBUNTU_BOOT_TEST_RUN 💖

okay bestie, welcome to ubuntu_boot_test_run from the General Commands Manual — it's the little script that runs automated bootloader tests for you so you don't have to sit there staring at a boot screen like it's a group chat you got left on read in. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

ubuntu_boot_test_run — run automated bootloader tests 🦋

no cap, that's the whole vibe. it boots stuff. it tests stuff. it slays. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

ubuntu_boot_test_run [-h] {pcbios,uefi_noshim,uefi_shim} [-h] -r RELEASE
-a ARCH [packages ...]

yes, -h really does show up twice in there. that's not a typo, that's canon. 🙈

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

  • {pcbios,uefi_noshim,uefi_shim} — which test to run, babe. pick your fighter: pcbios, uefi_noshim, or uefi_shim. choose wisely, they're not the same thing. 👑
  • -h, --help — shows the help message and then dips (exits). the "wait what was i doing" button. 🫶
  • -r RELEASE, --release RELEASE — the Ubuntu release for the guest. like, which Ubuntu is living in there rent-free. 💜
  • -a ARCH, --arch ARCH — the guest architecture. tell it what flavor of machine brain it's dealing with. 🧚
  • packages — a list of packages to install. and here's the tea: if you leave it empty, it does an apt-get download instead. so either you hand it a list, or it goes and fetches on its own. main character energy either way. ⭐
heads up bestie — -r RELEASE and -a ARCH are required (no brackets around them in the synopsis, you see it 👀), so don't come to this function empty-handed.

🌈 SEE ALSO 🌈
