From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is part of the motherboard and can only be changed with specific tools from the manufacturer. Back in the days there was
AMIDEDOS
as a dos tool to change it in AMI Bios. You would need to find out, what tool can be used to change it in your UEFI. However, it's possible that those tools are not available to the public.@vaionko@sopuli.xyz I've found this (scroll down to #5 if it won't scroll automatically). It shows some tools that can be used to change DMI information for different Manufacturers.
Hmm I might try one from there, although it requires Windows. I'll see if it works on Hiren's boot cd.
For WinPE, I like Sergey Strelec's build more than Hiren's: https://m.majorgeeks.com/files/details/sergei_strelecs_winpe.html
I thought TianoCore EDK 2 was open source? If your UEFI is EDK 2 its code should be wide open and availablem
