Hello !

Sorry, this is OT. But I tried the instructions on a Shuttle XS35V4 and, was 
able to install the snapshot from September 15. It works only with enabled USB 
3 (USB 2 get's disable during boot) and, only with install58.fs (miniroot58.fs 
and install58.iso doesn't worked). I was also not able to boot using bsd.rd 
(maybe my fault - I don't know). It was a quick try, if someone likes to get 
more informations / a dmesg, I could provide that tomorrow.

Regards,


Christoph

P.S. The BIOS provides only the option to disable secure boot (which I used) 
but no option to set CSM. Boot mode select is always set to UEFI and can't be 
changed. OS selection provides only Win 7 or Win 8 and 1 must be selected (I 
used Win 7).
