NAME
       gummiboot - Setup and manage Gummiboot Boot Manager

SYNOPSIS
       gummiboot [OPTIONS...]status

       gummiboot [OPTIONS...]update

       gummiboot [OPTIONS...]install

       gummiboot [OPTIONS...]remove

DESCRIPTION
       gummiboot checks, updates, installs or removes the boot loader from the
       current system.

       gummiboot status checks and prints the currently installed versions of
       the boot loader binaries and the all current EFI boot variables.

       gummiboot update updates all installed versions of gummiboot, if the
       current version is newer than the version installed in the EFI system
       partition. This also includes the EFI default/fallback loader at
       /EFI/Boot/boot*.efi. An gummiboot entry in the EFI boot variables is
       created, if there is no current entry. A created entry will be added to
       the end of the boot order list.

       gummiboot install installs gummiboot into the EFI system partition. A
       copy of gummiboot will be stored as the EFI default/fallback loader at
       /EFI/Boot/boot*.efi. An gummiboot entry in the EFI boot variables is
       created and added to the top of the boot order list.

       gummiboot remove removes all installed versions of gummiboot from the
       EFI system partition, and removes gummiboot from the EFI boot
       variables.

       If no command is passed status is implied.

OPTIONS
       The following options are understood:

       -h, --help
	   Prints a short help text and exits.

       --path
	   Path to the EFI system partition. The default is /boot.

       --no-variables
	   Do not touch the EFI boot variables.

EXIT STATUS
       On success 0 is returned, a non-zero failure code otherwise.
