Starting a new thread to not confuse things....

Trying to install the Rivendell DVD appliance iso on a new Lenovo i5 small
form computer...

If I choose UEFI BIOS for the DVD install, it will jump past the Rivendell
install options menu to install Centos 6.6 and some components of Riv but
Riv will not access it's own database, etc. The hard drive is bootable.

If I choose Legacy BIOS for the DVD install, it allows Riv install options,
says that it will install it on sdb even though there are no other hard
drives, and it will not boot on the hard drive afterward. When I boot it
with a live centos cd, it shows the hard drive as sda but the grub folder
is empty except for splash.xpm.gz - no device map or other configs. I tried
installing grub but can't see a difference - I may not know enough to do
it. It's just missing too many components and I need to set up systems that
others can easy work with. I've never run into this before.

Any last suggestions before I return the lenovo to the store and look for
an older machine? The move toward newer is because we use a high def
display (27 in 2560x1440) in our main studio and older boxes don't support
that.

Thanks,
