RE: Implementation of EFI Stub for wimboot?

I see that many wish the compatibility of wimboot to grub2 here. grub2 does not work with wimboot because wimboot as far as I know has no EFI stub. For the grub2 commands linuxefi and intridefi we need EFI stub. The question is could this be implemented?

Your post was moved to already existing thread, (there is a few others as well, try the search function) and the answer will be the same. wimbot _IS_ an efi application _and_ NBP bootable exectuable, using the same tricks as is used in the Linux kernel to do the same thing.

The question is rather: how do you make grub boot any arbitrary EFI executable, and one answer to that is found above.

Now if only grub could have a working implementation of "efiapplication" that would solve the issue.... and it does just as described above the chainloader option should work, another mention of this can be found at https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/277750/98422
