Explanation
{"question_number": 7, "question": "Invoking GRUB2 from the EFI shell command prompt", "correct_answer": "C", "explanation": "On UEFI-based Linux systems, the EFI System Partition (ESP) is typically mounted at /boot/EFI. The GRUB2 EFI binary is stored within that partition, making its full path /boot/EFI/grub2.efi (or a subdirectory like /boot/EFI/EFI/redhat/grub2.efi depending on the distribution). From the EFI shell prompt, you reference this full absolute path to invoke the bootloader. Option A ('boot//EFI/grub2.efi') uses an invalid double-slash syntax. Option B ('EFI/grub2.efi') is a relative path and would only work if you had already changed to the /boot directory. Option D ('/grub2.efi') places the file at the root of the filesystem, which is not where GRUB2 EFI files reside.", "generated_by": "claude-sonnet", "llm_judge_score": 4}
