Well, UEFI has the habit of having their own architecture names, which is where this comes from ... i386 -> ia32 x86_64 -> x64 aarch64 -> aa64 Luckily they stopped doing so, new architectures like riscv and loongarch kept their name in the UEFI universe, so going forward this confusion should at least not become worse than it already is. take care, Gerd
