No, you're doing the right thing. dd to the raw device is the right way to use the image, I was just checking that was what you'd done. Hmmm. Another machine that doesn't like the UEFI stuff we've got, it seems. :-( Silly question - could you possibly try writing the image to CD and see if that boots in UEFI mode please? -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK.
