Description Darren Hart 2014-04-08 15:28:29 UTC 
Gummiboot is now part of the core, but the infrastructure supporting efi is all grub-efi specific. These need to be updated to be more generic and allow for efi-plugin or abstractions. These include, for example:

mkefidisk.sh
wic
init-install-efi.sh
initramfs-live-install-efi
Comment 1 Darren Hart 2014-09-18 15:53:16 UTC 
This appears complete to me:

mkefidisk.sh:
88045c9 mkefidisk.sh: Add gummiboot support
 2014-07-19 (9 weeks ago), Darren Hart <dvhart@linux.intel.com>

wic:
I think this is the missing bit... Assign to Tom for him to either take the bug to complete the support, or to close if I missed the patch which adds this to wic.

init-install-efi.sh:
5f05bdd classes: Add gummiboot class
 2014-03-11 (6 months ago), Stefan Stanacar <stefanx.stanacar@intel.com>

initramfs-live-install-efi:
No changes required for functionality. The SUMMARY could be updated to be not grub specific.
