[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-kernel-meta 5/5] proxmox-boot: allow to manually specify bootloader

[Stoiko Ivanov <s.ivanov@proxmox.com>]

this commit adds the optional [--legacy|--uefi] arguments to
`p-b-t init`. If provided the respective boot-loader is installed
(regardless of what is found on the esp, and of the boot-mode)

This should make switching the boot-mode possible without the need
to boot into a live CD, chrooting and manually running the necessary
p-b-t commands.
