I doubt it's going to help or be what you are interested in, but most systems have the ability to turn on "legacy BIOS" in the EFI interface that allows the standard old rig to work. I do this with HP DL gen9 servers because it cuts the post/boot time in half vis-a-vis EFI. However, I realize a lot of folks want EFI to work etc.. Perhaps you are just testing. My understanding is that EFI generally wants a FAT file system with a /boot directory and it uses naming conventions to grab what it believes is the first state loader. However, I know very little about EFI other than "it usually doesn't work at this point". I'm sure there are good things about it, I'm just not up-to-date with it. -Swift
