Preseeding over the network: network boot set to UEFI.
Default preseed sets auto recipe which assumes an atomic partition layout which
has MBR
Can we please have a UEFI layout as a possible default?
It seems from partman-doc that there is an EFI layout: is it possible to create
a UEFI atomic partition layout?
Something like this, perhaps
512 512 650 fat16
$primary{ }
method{ efi }
format{ } .
500 10000 1000000 ext4
$primary{ }
method{ format }
format{ }
use_filesystem{ }
filesystem{ ext4 }
mountpoint{ / } .
64 512 300% linux-swap
method{ swap }
format{ } .
Thank you for your consideration
