System Architecture

Which statements about UEFI firmware are accurate?

Choose two
  • A It can read and interpret partition tables
  • B It can use and read certain file systems
  • C It stores its entire configuration on the /boot/ partition
  • D It is stored in a special area within the GPT metadata
  • E It is loaded from a fixed boot disk position
Explanation

UEFI can interpret disk partition tables and can read supported filesystems to find and launch EFI boot programs. For example, the EFI System Partition is typically FAT-formatted and contains bootloader files. UEFI firmware resides in platform firmware storage, while boot entries and settings are commonly held in nonvolatile firmware variables rather than solely in a boot partition or GPT metadata.
