Parent article: Fedora considers deprecating legacy BIOS
... a UEFI machine that takes more than one minute doing whatever in your back before trying to boot, and you have just 2 seconds to decide what device to boot from so you're forced to stay in front counting in your head.Just in case you haven't heard of it, does sudo grub2-reboot work for you? You run it from the Linux command line, specifying a grub menu entry, then reboot: Grub2 uses that menu entry just that once.
Works for me on Fedora.
