That's cool. I didn't realize that the Hurd could potentially boot from UEFI.
That's interesting.

No... I had not tried yet when you wrote your message.
Now, I have tried, and failed.
I think that a good part of the (my) problem, is that I have made a custom
iso, with
So, you got GNU Mach to boot with EFI? Wow! That's awesome!

That is much easier than I thought!
This manual explains it:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFIBooting
is a good introduction to booting on UEFI with Grub.
They say:
"If you have a non-Mac UEFI system, then you have a x86_64 (aka 64-bit) UEFI

But I did saw non-MAC UEFI which was 32 bit on relatively old laptops.
Type the following
I can't boot current in UEFI on "recent: Prime H310M-C CR2.0 motherboard.
Here on Ubuntu, I see the CD have:
/media/paul/Debian sid h-i386 1/EFI/boot/bootia32.efi
nothing else in that /EFI/boot directory.
I am really unsure, but I feel this file is for people having to boot 32 bits
(U)EFI.

Okay, Mach has no framebuffer console like fbcon in Linux, right? Then
maybe the only option is switching back to text mode.
