LimineUpgrader - By Dusk - Released under The Unlicense

Project *NOT* endorsed by Limine

This project is just two files:

	A script to update Limine

	A `pacman` hook to run the script when Limine is upgraded/installed

This project requires:

 - Limine

  ` https://github.com/limine-bootloader/limine

 - efibootmgr

  ` https://archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/efibootmgr/

 - Arch Linux (as if I didn't already say that)

  ` https://archlinux.org/

Install instructions

=====

1. Ensure you are running Arch Linux.

2. Clone this repository wherever you clone your stuff.

 ` If you don't have a place, I usually put my cloned stuff in a "cloned" directory in my home directory.

3. Open `src/update-limine.sh`.

From here, look for two variables. These are going to be what you edit.

	`PART_NAME` - This defines how your boot entry is going to be named in your UEFI interface.

	`DISK_BY_DEV` - This should be the disk you want to install onto.

		       ` i.e. if your disk is `/dev/sda`, set it to `/dev/sda`. Don't add partition numbers.

		       DO: /dev/sda

		       DONT: /dev/sda1

		       DO: /dev/nvme0n1

		       DONT: /dev/nvme0n1p1

Change the afformentioned variables accordingly.

4. Save the file.

5. Run the install script with `./install.sh`. You may need to make it runnable first: `sudo chmod +x install.sh`.

If you encounter any issues when using this project, please make an issue or contribute a fix if you make one. :]
