Thanks a lot for help and info! One more thing i would like to clarify (as i am new to EFI stuff): is it possible to have a boot media with live isos (like an usb stick) for both EFI and non-EFI systems? (i was wondering if just adding the /boot/efi part from a system with a corresponding grub.conf would be enough to being bootable by both legacy and UEFI only systems) Thank you! Adrian
