grub-file: Check if a file is an ARM EFI image.
$ grub-file --is-arm-efi ${filename}
try on your machine
The command grub-file --is-arm-efi ${filename}
is used to determine if a specified file is an EFI program compatible with ARM architecture. Let's break down the command and its components:
grub-file
is a command-line utility that is part of the GNU GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader) software. It is used to identify the type and properties of files related to booting and managing operating systems.--is-arm-efi
is an option or flag provided to thegrub-file
command. It specifies that the command should determine if the given file is an EFI program compatible with ARM architecture.${filename}
is a placeholder that represents the file name or path of the file you want to check. You need to replace this placeholder with the actual name or location of the file you want to examine.
When you execute the command with the appropriate file name or path, the grub-file
utility will analyze the specified file and determine if it is an EFI program that can be run on ARM-based systems. It can be helpful in verifying the compatibility of EFI files before using them for booting or system management purposes on ARM architectures.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
