[xubuntu-users] Using UEFI

[George DiceGeorge]

I bought this laptop from novatech.co.uk,
they can sell them without windows,
they build them near Portsmouth
so if things go wrong you can go round and complain!

(Nothing has gone wrong.)

I got a rather fast one, and hope it will last ten years!

Subject: [xubuntu-users] Using UEFI

My laptop died on me recently so I am looking to buy a new one. (It is
not my main machine, but I still expect to use it a lot.) Since it will
be new I suppose it will be set up to use UEFI as opposed to the old
BIOS system which I am used to.

The machine will be running Xubuntu only, I have not gone near Windows
for years. I have had a look at various help files via Google and am
feeling rather baffled.

Does anyone on the list have any help/advice for me about this please?
This could also be of interest to others on the list. One of the
problems I have found while doing my research is that most of the
writers assume that everyone who uses Linux wants to dual boot with
Windows.

Thanks

Neil
