Well, technically we already support both, but not OOB with the installer.
If you create gpt partitions with parted, the installer will happily
install mga on them, and it will boot and run correctly.
Thank your for that answer.
The efi part can also be managed, but you have some manual work
to get it to boot properly.
I'm working on making mga3 beta3 live images capable of booting in
efi mode, and then if it works ok, I'll extend it to normal install
isos, and then we'll have to see what adaptions need to be done
in the installer to properly install efi bootloader and we'll be done.
Can anyone help me?
Perhaps it would be good for someone with knowledge about that topic to
contact Bernd himself.
ixsoft is a major player in that field in Germany...
Well, I do intend to make sure mga3 will boot & install on uefi hw.
(as for secure boot, that I wont ever support)
Sounds good. So we aim to support UEFI (without secure boot) for Mga3?
I will forward this to the German forums then...
