Project Summary
clr-boot-manager exists to enable the correct maintenance of vendor kernels and appropriate garbage collection tactics over the course of upgrades. The implementation provides the means to enable correct cohabitation on a shared boot directory, such as the EFI System Partition for UEFI-booting operating systems.
Most importantly, clr-boot-manager provides a simple mechanism to provide kernel updates, with the ability for users to rollback to an older kernel should the new update be problematic. This is achieved through the use of strict namespace policies, permanent source paths, and clr-boot-manager's own internal logic, without the need for "meta packages" or undue complexity on the distribution side.
