Hello, I have tried yesterday an EFI boot with the install67.img snapshot (22-May-2020 21:12), but it froze at "entry point at 0x1001000". I had this laptop with a vanilla 6.6 booting from EFI until last week. I have now re-installed a vanilla 6.7 booting from MBR following your advice and it's fine for now. Thanks again! John
