I read this great article which is like a deep dive into UEFI for people who aren't kernel developers: https://www.happyassassin.net/201 4/01/25/uefi-boot-how-does-that-actually-work-then/ I'm now compulsively posting it on mailing lists whenever people mention the "UEFI bios" or "disabling the UEFI". You can install Linux on a computer that only has UEFI. Linux boots great on UEFI computers - that's what I'm running on my Fedora laptop right now. If the issue is Secure boot, to my knowledge many distros, at least both Fedora and Ubuntu, ship kernels signed by a CA that MS mandates is in computers shipped with windows. I thought that an intel atom tablet would be included in that. -- Thanks, Sam https://www.sam.today/ -- linux mailing list linux-w/[email protected] https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/linux
