You write your bootargs in the kernel, if you really must you can go to the efi shell and override by hand. you can surely install an efi ui on top of your efi implementation but that's unrelated. My current setup works decently the way I mentioned and I guess more than a single person might use it. > I'd go for init=/sbin/gentoo-init and make all the messy stuff there. > Otherwise by breaking /sbin/init it would be hard to find proper > name of, say, SYSVs /sbin/init. How would you call it? /bin/init is my idea (second in the list in linux fallback), otherwise we can just make the wrapper use a non-taken name and have people willing to play with it just reroll their kernel/boot system. lu
