Reboot to {OS}

This a collection of notes and files used in my quest to create "Reboot to Windows" and "Reboot to Linux" scripts (and desktop shortcuts) for Linux and Windows respectively that automatically reboot my system and instruct rEFInd to auto-select the appropriate OS entry.

General Information

The key for achieving this is to modify the EFI Variable PreviousBoot with GUID 36d08fa7-cf0b-42f5-8f14-68df73ed3740, which rEFInd uses to store the last entry selected in the menu and, if using the + default entry, will be used to select the default OS. By doing this, we trick rEFInd into booting the OS we choose without having to be physically there to press the keyboard.

How-to setup a simple git push deployment

These are my notes basically. At first i created this gist just as a reminder for myself. But feel free to use this for your project as a starting point. If you have questions you can find me on twitter @thomasf https://twitter.com/thomasf This is how i used it on a Debian Wheezy testing (https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/)
