Reading the release notes indicates they are still working on their EFI/uEFI support. I've also noticed a lot of other free OSes that seem to be struggling with it.

Is EFI really that complicated? I also ask because it doesn't seem to me that EFI hasn't really made the PC better for anyone other than Microsoft and Apple.




UEFI boot just works, for the most part.

11.0 doesn't have support for EFI runtime services, but a lot of that has been added to CURRENT (which will become 12.0 and maybe make it into 11.1 via backport) very recently.
