I am just starting to get into the UEFI with my newer computer. I notice that f38's auto partitioning creates a partition and formats it with xfs. I suppose manually ext4 could be used. This drive I don't believe is too big for ext4. But it would take a little time to format.
You must be using the server edition, because otherwise the default is btrfs which I recommend.
My question is, using manual or "custom" partitioning would I want a 250-500 MB partition with the ID 0xef00 and then an ext4 partition, for use with linux? I know M$ adds all kinds of additions to the UEFI spec. What is needed for linux in making a custom partition set up?
You need an EFI partition and probably an ext4 /boot partition if you're formatting the rest as btrfs.
