When the BOOX64.EFI file executes, the software changes the EFI settings to make Ubuntu the default operating system to boot. This file is an exact copy of the /EFI/ubuntu/shim圆4.efi file stored in the same volume. (You hold down the option key at startup to access to the Mac Startup Manager.) The Startup Manager instructions the boot loader in the firmware to boot using the file /EFI/BOOT/BOOX64.EFI file in the FAT32 formatted volume in the EFI partition. I will post my successful attempts below.īy default, Ubuntu can be accessed from the Mac Startup Manager by selecting the icon labeled EFI Boot.

If you delete the EFI settings (= EFI partition on your hard drive), your device cannot boot on this OS and often leads to a black screen or equivalent at startup. *The EFI settings are - simply put - what allows your device to boot on a given OS.
