  • My point was that it’s not EDK2 instead of GRUB at the same layer: EDK2 is the UEFI layer, and GRUB still runs fine on top of it as an EFI binary from your ESP. All the things you listed keep working that way: LUKS, RAID, password protection, even memtest via the efi/ insert mechanism. What you lose is only having GRUB directly in CBFS without an ESP.

    What you gain with EDK2: Windows boots at all, TPM 2.0 works (the SeaBIOS issues that got it disabled are gone), and option ROMs for external GPUs.
