Hi Adrian,
I just updated the MR with the changes I discussed in my previous mail
(and also listed below). My previous mail also contained some responses
and questions, if you have some time to respond to those that would be
great.

thanks again for your thorough review. I'm responding to both your
e-mails inline below.

Familiar sentiment. Would be nice to have it, though.

I'm not the maintainer of live-build, but given the freeze state that
buster is in, I highly doubt this will make it into buster.

Dear Matthijs,
thanks a lot for your work on syslinux-efi, i am relying on syslinux for
Sage Debian Live [1], and more and more laptops are not able to boot on
legacy (bios) formatted devices (including macs).
Is there a chance that this work will be part of buster live-build

Hi Adrian,

Hi Luca & others,
I've been working on syslinux-efi support in the past weeks and just
submitted a MR with a working implementation, along with some small
bootloader-related cleanups and refactors:

In the end, I opted to

Hm, that's another interesting thought. I was aiming for syslinux, since

Ady emphasized that it does work with HDD. It was others and me who

for iso images, I believe).
Syslinux also has an EFI version, that can be installed
