It seems to be their policy to have a boot loader (and probably kernel) that can't work on its own. So Windows (including current versions) al- ways need either BIOS calls or UEFI services. No idea about the kernel's requirements, but the bootloader part could probably be fixed easily by implementing Multiboot ;) > > Any idea of traditional IBM-PC-Bios-calls are still available in > UEFI-Firmware? No idea, all of them? usually through a CSM (Compatibility Support Module). It's kind of the SeaBIOS of UEFI.
