I have some oddball hardware I want to use FAI on. It has a

Is there a way to get FAI to do something similar?
I may not fully understand your problem, but wouldn't FAI just
detect the
availability of UEFI (via /sys/)?
Relevant background here is that I’m booting FAI off a CD image,
because this hardware doesn’t have Ethernet. The image doesn’t
even boot, because it has a 64-bit bootloader which the computer’s
32-bit UEFI can’t use. So it can’t make any decisions based on
what’s in /sys.
