I have burnt a Fedora 29 workstation live install to DVD and tried to boot it with the bios set to UEFI mode, but it halted with a boot error. Thinking there might be an error with the DVD I downloaded a tool for windows that allowed me to download and burn the F29 installer to usb, but this failed to boot with the same issue as the DVD. If I switched the bios into legacy mode both the DVD and USB successfully booted to the Fedora desktop. From what I have read on the net the live installer is dual setup, in terms of the documentation said that if the installer was booted in UEFI mode it would perform a UEFI install and if it was booted in legacy mode it would do a bios install, so given this have I done something incorrectly to cause the installer to not boot in UEFI mode?
I have booted the F29 live using USB in UEFI mode. What is the error you are getting? If you're creating it from Windows, you should be using the Fedora live media writer.
Having set my hard disks up in Raid 10 mode I booted the F29 installer in bios mode which successfully booted to the desktop, where I selected the install to hard disk option which worked fine up to the point of setting up the disks, where the disk setup could not see any disks at all to configure for installation. From what I've read on the internet the workstation installers for F22 through F24 did not support raid but the equivalent server installers did. Has this still not been rectified up to the F29 workstation installer?
How are you creating the RAID? Is this hardware RAID or software RAID? If hardware, then what is the RAID model? Also, it's easier to use Linux software RAID which you can setup in the installer. And personally, I think it's safer and probably faster.
