elilo was a boot loader for Linux on computers with Extensible Firmware Interface (EFI), the development of which has been discontinued since 2014.
The software was originally developed for the IA-64 architecture , then expanded to IA-32 and finally to x86-64 . Unlike the Grand Unified Bootloader (GRUB), elilo no longer supports the BIOS . However, elilo can use a configuration file similar to the Linux Loader (LILO).
elilo supports booting over the network using DHCP and TFTP .
Individual evidence
- ↑ ELILO: EFI Linux Boot Loader . Retrieved on July 4, 2015: "This project is orphaned, Debian dropped it in 2014, and RH & SUSE stopped using this tree (and feeding back change) long before that so no longer interested in working on it."
