Re: installing TC3 on EFI

I have only AHCI or compatible mode so I don't think it's relevant for my laptop (doesn't matter the UEFI mode).
I start the install now, hope to have the files soon.

My Asus motherboard does AHCI on CSM just fine.

Do you have a source for this? I did a CSM install on my new laptop
because doing a native UEFI install was a pain, and I haven't noticed
any particular issues with drive performance or battery life.
