I have not only read about, I also tested. This is my setup, and it works perfectly: - Asus board (with UEFI and BIOS mode) - SSD with GPT - installed Debian as usual with grub-pc - no special EFI boot partition or whatever Boots perfectly in BIOS mode. I tried about 5 variants of installing Debian with UEFI on it, without success. Ubuntu on the other hand installed in a few minutes with UEFI, is part of the installer and a walk in the park. Debian is not there yet. In the end I went for BIOS mode because I wanted Debian and the boot time is great. There is no benefit in UEFI when it comes to boot times, at least not for the regular single/multi boot user. Just my 2c. ändu -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
