How to add/install UEFI driver
I have written my own UEFI Driver using EDK2 from tianocore. I want it to be run each time an OS loads. Do I need to modify the bootmgfw.efi? How to pass control to my BootCheck.efi and only after it executes load Windows?
One more question, how can I add a flag, which I can use in my driver? I need it to be set to 0 at first launch, and then 1 in subsequent boots.
I would appreciate a step by step guide or any useful information, thank you.
@Edit:
If that's possible, I would prefer it to be installed using pendrive or disk.
