grub-file: Check if a file is an x86_64 EFI image.
$ grub-file --is-x86_64-efi ${filename}
try on your machine
The command grub-file --is-x86_64-efi ${filename}
is a Linux command that determines whether a given file is an x86_64 (64-bit) EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) executable.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
grub-file
: This is the command itself. It is part of the GRUB (Grand Unified Bootloader) package, which is commonly used as a boot loader on Linux systems.--is-x86_64-efi
: This is an option or flag passed to thegrub-file
command. It checks whether the file is an x86_64 EFI executable. EFI is a firmware interface specification used on UEFI-based computer systems.${filename}
: This is a placeholder for the name of the file you want to check. You will need to replace${filename}
with the actual name or path of the file you want to examine.
By running this command and providing the desired file as an argument, you can determine if the specified file is an x86_64 EFI executable or not.
