I created an EFI compatible FAI-CD last week... I just wanted to test it a little before publishing the necessary changes here. So far it works for me with both 64bit and 32bit EFI firmwares. It does not support secure boot, though. I had problems with the grub menu in EFI mode, however. For some weird reason the menu was all black, i.e. invisible, except for the currently highlighted line. The same grub.cfg works with GRUB-PC as usual. There are also some changes necessary to the installation; some are already prepared in the current FAI version but they're not complete. I will try to find some time next week to do that, at least I can share the necessary changes here. Bye, Andreas
