"It just doesn't work" (tm), there is a command (which logically must exist) needed to make the environment right at that step that I couldn't find, and I'm not trying to solve that one today. But 1) yes, sometimes the received wisdom that something different is better isn't true; and 2) no, apparently even the new UEFI loader still doesn't work on that notebook (thanks Asus, for going that extra ten miles to make it so weird and non-conforming), so with some disgust, I'm going to something else on that notebook for now because I'm going out of town today and didn't have all week to solve this. -- David Benfell <benfell@parts-unknown.org> [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAABAgAGBQJWawadAAoJEOoml8Ul4D7W04UP/jNzA10uF8dSQC1yszcngdBZ bjBFDwdgmmjMwC46jrKCAY4X/jjnT8kNU62d4Bc8+2BE5lhmkoZ/T72yCd/entH7 Ep0vi4D5JYH8n9mQQptCXGXWV6vlec/qSbHqVQKzyGLw+wXpfT/y50+FOShqWlMD 2DWwNk3rgEvw4hm1dvuO+pmTAAAgRCZ83f9gkUz2l7EIE701RSKjTLc4SBc7rfdT 1TyLmdmi5DhbSOGvolcuLF7gTCQ77rfRnvpcfjAEa/PZL3ONw/NoRKzZfmiFCFJi +rNROsDfFc7cHUKOnbh1LzbFX/926Lsy1VtX4D9V+YYelYNt73bOH29HP9C2cztv Oy6paYSQSa7rSZ8rDTwLAA22jcsuNT1hEPukoSpYYFwS5kfDYkuhwAPk0yzoMO/9 D6tTNVpsRvuKEaEsxX2cKaGH9pYUxAn0QDxvC4HMb9OM/sGSYdzZTDKyQqOvnovQ 5CN72BPEsJoraVwowvuLUcZgdzwDx8SV/bpy5b7M6EI11AIgkDZBWTSZ4H+6Aynn /Qr5tkhXLgq2zw1D17YqlP9iwdKD493G3L0Z6I9r/ZCpaYHvdgpdTq0rsaKEYGeQ 2y0Iy1W5lMUyrKeDDWV3AAwFM+IsulfeQGvc8AHuW+aPOSv8Bd7P6rBUFXN976ce j4WNLwIom89yh830PpUa =KZhK -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----help
