Refer: https://itsfoss.com/access-uefi-from-linux/

It is still a good idea to ensure that your Linux distro uses systemd. Use the given command and if it returns systemd you are good to go:

ps --no-headers -o comm 1

Once you figure out that your distro is utilizing systemd, you can use the given command to boot into UEFI settings:

systemctl reboot --firmware-setup

Let me break down the used options first:

  • reboot: As its name suggest, it will reboot your system.
  • --firmware-setup: When this option is used with reboot, it will indicate to the system’s firmware to boot into the firmware setup interface.
