Clover EFI bootloader (for debian or ubuntu)

[Anonymous]

Has anyone looked into the prospect of using this ?

It might provide the ability to present richer docs (and localized docs?) right from the boot screen.

I am curious of any experience with Clover some may have had…
My experience and attempt to use Clover some time ago was to be able to boot UEFI USB install system on MBR disk partitioned with GPT table, but on non-UEFI (legacy) laptop. This ended not successful but Clover appeared to be interesting from boot management perspective.
In a word, my experience with Clover was quite narrow and limited.
