[OpenIndiana-discuss] Status of UEFI boot support in OI-hipster-gui-20250606 installer

[Atiq Rahman]

Hi John,
Interesting to see there are test builds. Are those daily builds?

Regarding UEFI, I am doing an install of OpenSolaris derivative after a
long time.
My System is completely UEFI (no MBR support). However, for the custom
partition, text-installer (install on a partition) shows MBR next to it.
That's
exactly the reason that made me cautious.

[ So, I am still backing up my data from my target disk. I have thousands
of coding
projects and builds. Cleaning 'em is taking a while. It has effectively
postponed
my plan to come back to OI (OpenSolaris) till that is complete.  ]

Best!

Atiq
