## Status

Currently a work in progress and is not ready to ship for production
updates, but early feedback on the design is appreciated!
bootupd supports updating GRUB and shim for UEFI firmware on
x86_64 and aarch64, and GRUB for BIOS firmware on x86_64.
The project is [deployed in Fedora CoreOS](https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-coreos/bootloader-updates/) and derivatives,
and is also used by the new [`bootc install`](https://github.com/containers/bootc/#using-bootc-install)
functionality. The bootupd CLI should be considered stable.

bootupd does not yet perform updates in a way that is safe
against a power failure at the wrong moment, or
against a buggy bootloader update that fails to boot
the system.

Therefore, by default, bootupd updates the bootloader only when manually instructed to do so.
