Valid concerns, but we can only go on anecdotal evidence from the behaviour of the machines we see. Even if it is a bug in Windows, if the firmware developers are writing code that expects the bug, and users see pretty BIOS screens with Windows but not in Linux, we usually try to be bug-compatible. All of that is a long way of saying: It doesn't matter if it's a bug or not, we should provide the same behaviour. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-efi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
