Use efibootmgr as imp suggested and add another entry with desired boot information, you may then select this new entry as the default. It will show up in BIOS / Setup menu and you can change order over there.. but the entry needs to be added with efibootmgr :-) No worries I had the same problem too some time ago, also found reference to bootme flag which did not work (should be removed from man pages?). Now I sometimes use F8 at boot to select different system to boot.. but there are good looking menu like bootloaders for UEFI like reEFInd [1], Clover [2], LibreBoot [3]. Maybe we need some more documentation on this? :-) [1] https://sourceforge.net/projects/refind/ [2] https://sourceforge.net/projects/cloverefiboot/ [3] https://libreboot.org/ --=20 CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info
