That's a very simple thing to answer: if you're in EFI mode, there will be a directory /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/ with files in it. In BIOS mode, there won't. In the installer, you'll need to open a shell with Alt-F2 and take a look. > PS: the keyboard & mouse problem disappeared after another reinstall, > but booting is only possible over the BIOS menu. Like John Doe, no idea what this means. Cheers, David.
