The OneFileLinux project, although inactive for years, demonstrates a unique method of operating entirely from the UEFI system partition, promoting independence from bootable USBs.
OneFileLinux packs a compact version of Alpine Linux into a 20 MB file, challenging Linux vendors to rethink their approach against proprietary systems' influence on boot processes.
Despite its potential, OneFileLinux faces hurdles with UEFI implementations on generic PCs, which can complicate the process of adding it as a boot option.
The concept encourages smaller Linux distributions that can fit into the underutilized space of UEFI system partitions, reminiscent of older distros fitting on floppy disks.
