http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Extensible_Firmware_Interface Either way UEFI is what is standing between me and a brand new dual booting Asus 1215B netbook. Of tuppence I'd blast away the Windows 7 partition, but my Glorious Overlady, She Who Must Be Obeyed wants me to keep it. Sigh! Not having much luck with Oneiric Ocelot amd64...
