My host machine happens to be an Intel Mac (which is basically an EFI based machine for fastest boots - which I want - but also has the ability to boot in legacy BIOS emulation mode which Macs can use if they are installed with Windows and set to startup to a Windows partition - which I DONвЂќT want to do.)

the recommended partition scheme, and the commands) that I need to do to install RHLinux on my machine so that a UEFI installation of the OS results (NOT a вЂњlegacyвЂќ bios-style installation). I simply want to know the specific steps (i.e. How can I tell the installer to create a UEFI Linux installation on my Mac (or anywhere for that matter), rather than a legacy BIOS one?Д¬ould someone please answer this question? the /boot (not LVM) 4 gig, / (root) 60 gig LVM, /home 500 GB LVM, and swap 128 GB LVM, which all still resulted in a legacy booting system, not UEFI.

I read in the DOCs that a UEFI RedHat Linux install needs a EFI boot partition, and a GUID partition map for the rest of the drive, and I prepared that for the drive I wanted to install Linux on on my Mac.Дuring installation, I chose manual drive setup, and selected the EFI partition I had created earlier, and set formatting of it to vfat, and manually added the other required partitions i.e. (I already tried installing on a BIOS-based PC I have here, and that results naturally enough in a legacy BIOS style Linux install, with no extra options being visible as far as I could see from the install that I went through on my Mac.) I don't have access to a modern UEFI-based Windows machine to do the installation there, and transfer it to my Mac. Trouble is after going through the Linux install in that way, the installation that follows produces a legacy BIOS configured Linux installation - which is not what I want - I want it to be installed in UEFI mode, so that I can select it with an EFI-based Mac boot loader (in particular, Clover), in a triple or dual boot situation on my machine. I've found it won't boot to a USB OS installation stick, but, the standard RedHat DVD iso will boot, though only after a bit of coaxing, and waiting (and pulling all the possible alternative boot drive options from the machine) as Macs are natively EFI based machines, and will only boot in a legacy BIOS style after a longish wait, allowing them to support Windows.
