+The EFI stub loader is basic and reliable, but it requires some setup to use it on some computers. It also requires that you run a kernel with the same bit width as your EFI. In most cases, this means running a 64-bit kernel, since 32-bit EFI-based computers are so rare. I describe three methods of using the EFI stub loader: an easiest method for those with compatible partition and filesystem layouts, a quick test configuration for those without such a layout, and a long-term setup for those without the ideal setup.
