Can anyone else try writing a recent Rawhide image - I used Fedora-

current equivalent would be

- to USB with dd then booting it in native UEFI mode on some system,
and see if it works? It'd be good to know if there's a general issue or
I just have some cranky hardware. Thanks!

Wrote the linked ISO to a thumb drive using Fedora Media Writer. Tested UEFI-only boot on three different computers, works fine. Tested BIOS-only boot on two different computers, and IT'S BROKEN. Well, it actually works fine on my Intel 4th gen-based desktop PC, but it doesn't boot on my Thinkpad T480s (in "Legacy only, CSM enabled" mode). When I select the flash drive in the one-time boot menu, it just immediately returns back to the menu. On the same T480s, Fedora 36 images boot just fine in BIOS-only mode. Not good. Worth reporting it somewhere? (I'm not sure if I can add any more valuable data, though).
