We are trying to create an FAI CD with FAI 5 that can
boot in EFI mode, however from our research, it does
not appear that FAI supports EFI booting. We are
trying to install a Mac machine with FAI so that we
can add this machine to our cluster and since the Macs
don't support PXE, we are trying to make an FAI CD
that is EFI bootable.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Has anyone successfuly made an FAI CD that can boot
in EFI mode or had success adding a Mac OS client with
FAI through other means?<br>
</div>

Thanks</div>

<p>I created an EFI compatible FAI-CD last week... I just wanted to
test it a little before publishing the necessary changes here. So
far it works for me with both 64bit and 32bit EFI firmwares. It
does not support secure boot, though. I had problems with the grub
menu in EFI mode, however. For some weird reason the menu was all
black, i.e. invisible, except for the currently highlighted line.
The same grub.cfg works with GRUB-PC as usual.</p>
<p>There are also some changes necessary to the installation; some
are already prepared in the current FAI version but they're not
complete.<br>
</p>
<p>I will try to find some time next week to do that, at least I can
share the necessary changes here.</p>
<p>Bye,</p>
