Hi.

Not sure if I should submit that as a bug - maybe more like a
readability/feature request ... the efibootmgr(8) output adds Boot word to each
entry which IMHO makes the output less readable.

Here is the default output:

# efibootmgr                
BootCurrent: 0009
Timeout    : 0 seconds
BootOrder  : 001A, 0006, 0007, 000C, 0008, 000E, 000F, 000A, 000B, 0009, 0010,
0011, 0012, 000D, 0013
 Boot001A* FreeBSD
 Boot0006* USB CD
 Boot0007* USB FDD
 Boot000C* USB HDD
 Boot0008* ATAPI CD0
 Boot000E* ATAPI CD1
 Boot000F* ATAPI CD2
 Boot000A* ATA HDD0
 Boot000B* ATA HDD1
+Boot0009* ATA HDD2
 Boot0010  Other CD
 Boot0011* ATA HDD3
 Boot0012* ATA HDD4
 Boot000D* PCI LAN
 Boot0013  Other HDD

Here is the output with 'Boot' word from the output:

# efibootmgr | sed s/Boot//g
Current: 0009
Timeout    : 0 seconds

0011, 0012, 000D, 0013

 0010  Other CD

Judge for yourself and close if you think its useless.

Regards.
