according to man xorriso, that would looks like: -boot_image "grub" efi_path=bootefi.fat32 platform_id="0xef" where bootefi.fat32 would be a file in FAT32 containing both: /EFI/BOOT/BOOTIA32.EFI /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI ... I think. Will now look atAndrea G. Monaco's post on grub-devel

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UEFIBooting is a good introduction to booting on UEFI with Grub. They say: "If you have a non-Mac UEFI system, then you have a x86_64 (aka 64-bit) UEFI 2.x firmware. " But I did saw non-MAC UEFI which was 32 bit on relatively old laptops. Type the following com
