    systemctl reboot --firmware-setup

    This will cause a Linux machine to reboot directly into the UEFI. I know it’s not groundbreaking but it can be really handy if you use fast-boot. At least your days of pecking the Delete key during POST will be over.

    Windows does this too, though I’ve forgotten the method.

      That’s weird, on my machine it reboots me directly into the BIOS.


      Sidenote: if you dualboot, I can’t recommend enough setting up a desktop entry which runs this command:

      systemctl reboot --boot-loader-entry=auto-windows

      It’s basically a one-click Windows launcher.

        I tried it but nothing happened. Mainly because I wouldn’t let Windows touch bare metal anymore for anything.
