Hi.
After I put EFI in sda1 Refracta installer was not satisfied and told me to
put 'boot installer' in, and write some (unspecified) text in fstab, but
wasn't in ETC.
How and what to write in fstab?
You tell me to specify question.
How to specify a total mess?
I'm trying to put a (Debian fork),
on the right side I need
an EFI cd.
Read that Debian supports EFI. So I'm here, asking for your help &/or a
link to ISO.
BR,
Gunnar Gervin.
PS.
Distro developers, if any here *:*
It's all right you dislike EFI bootloader after MS released it, but please
let me use it.

Hm.
Tried press option key
But usb does not show in screen
And when in grub wrote

The different suggestions are not complete, are they??

would rather be:

For me, testing distros in an old Mac is way more than enough; I'll burn
