💖 uefitool(1) — bestie's guide to the UEFI firmware glow-up 💖

okay so. sit down, grab a boba, because we're talking about uefitool from the General Commands Manual and it's literally the tool you need for peeking inside your firmware. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

uefitool — a UEFI firmware image viewer and editor 🦋

like. it looks at your firmware. it edits your firmware. main character energy fr fr.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

uefitool [image_file]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

uefitool is a cross-platform C++/Qt program for parsing, extracting and modifying UEFI firmware images. it's giving "i can do all three and i'm not even sorry" 😌✨

it supports parsing of full BIOS images starting with the flash descriptor, or any binary files containing UEFI volumes. yes bestie, either one — full BIOS image from the flash descriptor, or just a random binary file that happens to have UEFI volumes in it. it ate and left no crumbs 🔥

not me casually knowing exactly what a flash descriptor is 💀 (it's fine, you'll learn, we all learn)

👑 AUTHOR 👑

uefitool is written by Nikolaj Schlej aka CodeRush. iconic behavior, honestly. 🫶

this manual page was written by Yangfl for the Debian Project (and may be used by others). the way that the Debian Project just lets other people use it… generous queens 💜

2018-07-23 — that's the date bestie, and this whole thing lives under uefitool(1) from the General Commands Manual 🎀 that's the vibe check, we passed, bye 💖✨🌈
