No. There's no 32-bit UEFI bootloader stuff being built in Fedora. If
it's booting, I suspect that the EFI compatibility support module
(CSM-BIOS) is being triggered, and this is actually a legacy BIOS
boot. If you get it booted, you can do 'efibootmgr -v' and post the
results. Basically if you get some lines that look like entries, then
it's a UEFI boot, and if you get an error then it's a BIOS boot.
