Wilcox" Hi, I have an aarch64 system that uses UEFI that I can test with. My experience w= ith EFI on arm is that it=E2=80=99s even more fickle than on x86, so if poss= ible it would be good to test on several platforms. This system is a gigabyt= e mt30-gs0 board with a cavium thunderx chip. I=E2=80=99ll test out alpine o= n it this weekend. Regards, Michael > On 24 Jan 2018, at 11:00 am, A.
