<h1 id="running-on-hardware"><a class="header" href="#running-on-hardware">Running on Hardware</a></h1>
|
|
<p>Prerequisite: To allow loading your unsigned binary on your personal machine,
|
|
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFI#Secure_Boot">secure boot</a> needs to be disabled in the BIOS setup.</p>
|
|
<p>To run on real hardware you'll need a specially-prepared USB drive.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="preparation"><a class="header" href="#preparation">Preparation</a></h2>
|
|
<p>The general steps to prepare the drive are:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Partition the drive using <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table">GPT</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>Create a partition.</li>
|
|
<li>Set the partition type GUID to
|
|
<code>C12A7328-F81F-11D2-BA4B-00A0C93EC93B</code>. That marks it as an EFI
|
|
System partition. (On many UEFI implementations this is not strictly
|
|
necessary, see note below.)</li>
|
|
<li>Format the partition as <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table">FAT</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>Mount the partition.</li>
|
|
<li>Create the directory path <code>EFI/BOOT</code> on the partition. (FAT is case
|
|
insensitive, so capitalization doesn't matter.)</li>
|
|
<li>Copy your EFI application to a file under <code>EFI/BOOT</code>. The file name
|
|
is specific to the architecture. For example, on x86_64 the file name
|
|
must be <code>BOOTX64.EFI</code>. See the <a href="../concepts/gpt.html#system-partition">boot files</a> table for other
|
|
architectures.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>The details of exactly how to do these steps will vary depending on your OS.</p>
|
|
<p>Note that most UEFI implementations do not strictly require GPT
|
|
partitioning or the EFI System partition GUID; they will look for any
|
|
FAT partition with the appropriate directory structure. This is not
|
|
required however; the UEFI Specification says "UEFI implementations may
|
|
allow the use of conforming FAT partitions which do not use the ESP
|
|
GUID."</p>

<p>Insert the USB into the target computer. Reboot the machine, then press

the one-time boot key. Which key to press depends on the vendor. For

example, Dell uses F12, HP uses F9, and on Macs you hold down the Option

key.</p>

<p>Once the one-time boot menu appears, select your USB drive and press enter.</p>
