Tool for debugging bootloader problems

Usage

bootinfoscript [options]

Introduction

bootinfoscript inspects your boot environment, that is your partitions and your boot loader. It produces a report which is easy to read and easy to send to someone else who might be able to help you if you can’t fix the problem yourself.

Options

-v

Show version and exit.

-h

Show help text and exit.

-g or --gzip

Gzip report file after creation. The plain text file will be kept, too.

--this

Force bootinfoscript to run, even if you have another copy of bootinfoscript in your local directory.
