I want to take another effort and retry to get my box booted via UEFI
again. I had that working back then, Gentoo and Win7 ... since it failed
due to some SSD-swapping and stuff I have never seen Win7 again ;-)
Aside from the "I want it because it sounds more modern and is
complicated": do we get any benefit from booting via UEFI?
AFAI understand (haven't googled it today but read about it back then)
one of the major issues is hdd- and partition-size, right? So if I only
have disks/partitions smaller than 2 TB ... no real difference, right?
I also play around with the booting of EFI-Stub-Kernels ... (getting rid
of GRUB2)
I got it started but it somehow stopped booting and just sat there. With
and without EFI_FB set.
Maybe I should use part-uuids instead of device-names next time
especially as I have / on sdc1 and the UEFI-ESP on sda1 (just a thought).
just asking for discussion and experience ...
Stefan
