A few months ago, a very brief power outage occurred while I was using Windows 10. It lasted less than a second and when I turned my computer on again, it booted into Ubuntu, which was installed on an old HDD that I rarely used, instead of my Windows SSD, which used to be the default boot...

So, I know the UEFI is responsible for POSTing then loading the machine's OS... But then, what loads the UEFI itself up in the first place? Does it have its own tiny special boot loader?
