Change boot order from linux

Closed this issue 3 years ago · 3 comments

Is there a way to change the boot order from a linux system.

For example, if I want to boot from USB instead of SSD once, to make a backup of the SSD to the stick (with dd).

It would be very helpful because, in case of a broken system after update, I got my backup and would be able to flash it back to the SSD. And I could do so, without the need of taking a RS232-cable.

Thanks for your help ;-)

We are working on that for some time.
