CSM boot from install media does work. CSM installations don't reboot successfully, without manual creation of a hybrid MBR. While I understand the reluctance to support hybrid MBR, that is how Apple supports Windows CSM installations. I don't know which is more difficult, squashing the myriad VBIOS bugs with Apple EFI booting, or tolerating hybrid MBRs. Even with successful livecd-iso-to-disk USB stick boots in EFI, both of my test computers have outstanding video bugs that translate into no GUI. By successful, I mean the kernel, initrd, and services load - except for X and gnome/kde. I can ssh in and interact text only. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=765954 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=751147 Chris Murphy -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
