1 I checked the Gentoo wiki http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/UEFI about
2 handling UEFI boot. I'm still a bit confused. The way I read it, there
3 are 2 separate issues...
4 * UEFI boot
5 * GPT versus MBR partitions
6
7 Apparently, I get to choose between unmasking ELILO or GRUB2 to do a
8 UEFI boot. As near as I can tell...
9 * A separate EFI partition (FAT32) is required
10 * The EFI partition needs to be mounted via /etc/fstab
11
12 Is that correct?
