No. There's no 32-bit UEFI bootloader stuff being built in Fedora. If it's booting, I suspect that the EFI compatibility support module (CSM-BIOS) is being triggered, and this is actually a legacy BIOS boot. If you get it booted, you can do 'efibootmgr -v' and post the results. Basically if you get some lines that look like entries, then it's a UEFI boot, and if you get an error then it's a BIOS boot. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
