ĸen, lucky enough to have avoided UEFI for the moment, but suspecting that any new machine might use it.
On that note, I'd like to share a recent story about a student of mine who bought a laptop specifically for LFS. We tried to disable secure boot and were able to install Debian as a host, but when he rebooted, it said there were not any OSes to boot from. We tried to find an option in the BIOS interface to disable secure boot, but didn't find it if it existed.
He then took the laptop back to the store and exchanged it for a Lenovo laptop that did have a way to bypass secure boot.
