UEFI:NTFS v2.4

  • This version adds unloading of any native file system driver servicing the target partition so that is replaced by our own [ae74e6a].
  • This is done in lights of issues raised in the commonly used AMI NTFS driver (see https://github.com/pbatard/AmiNtfsBug) as well as other reports that indicate potential issues arising from attempting to use native file system drivers.
  • Doing so also allows the user to have choice in the driver they use for UEFI boot as, if there already exists a native file system driver, they will be able to pick between 2 boot options for the same media, with each one using a different file system driver.
  • All other changes since v2.3 are external to the bootloader code.
  • This release was build from GitHub Actions on Linux/Ubuntu using gcc and the latest EDK2 (https://github.com/pbatard/uefi-ntfs/actions/runs/8270940512).
  • The _signed binaries are the Secure Boot signed versions (In a Secure Boot enabled environment, these should be used with the _signed versions of the NTFS drivers found here)
  • Note that the 32-bit ARM version is not Secure Boot signed, as Microsoft's current policies require additional validation for the signing of 32-bit ARM UEFI binaries.
