Hi Everybody,
I tried to install Wheezy, the nightly and weekly builds on a system
with UEFI bios yesterday and unfortunately it failed. Based on messages
I got it seems that the kernel in the UEFI image doesn't match the
additional kernel modules. When I used the latest Beta, it worked.
The second issue I had was that the grub2 set the LCD monitor out of
sync and there was no way to continue with the installation. At the end
I edited the ISO image in a binary editor and changed in
boot/grub/grub.cfg the line "set gfxmode=auto" to "set gfxmode=800x600"
and it worked. Fortunately, there are enough spaces in the original
grub.cfg file; you are clever guys ;-). The grub2 in the current Fedora
18 doesn't have such problems, so I suspect that some patches in the
mode setting code might be missing, just guessing.
BR
Vaclav M.
