When booting from EFI you need a GPT boot partition (FAT - ugh) that

I'm working on getting a new motherboard, Will I still be able to have
my boot filesystem on a flash-stick? Currently I have everything except
/boot on LVM on top of Physical Volumes on unpartitioned raid volumes.
Having a single drive with an odd size makes swapping drives around when
they fail and drop out of the raid a hassle, and I do not want to waste
2G on every drive just to have a 2G boot partition. A flash stick (and
another one for backup) is very pleasant to work with. Especially when i
bork my initramfs or need to run maintenance without mounting my root
filesystem. Will this work on an EFI board ?
