Public bug reported:

i am sure this laptop works in legacy/bios mode now, because it booted
windowses while did not had any efi partitions. but xubuntu 19.10
installer warns several times saying that efi partition is not set.

proof that live dvd may be booted in efi mode while laptop works in
legacy mode:
