I bought a Lenovo ideapad netbook last February, thinking I would run openbsd on
it. I never dreamed I wouldn't be able to boot from a usb on it. what a surprise. did
lots of searching-no joy. and they say the "uefi" is for security. right. security of their income. I've got it locked up/all updates killed-i'll use it for emergencies. I still use a 7
machine also anyway. what I did also do is buy 4 used thinkpads, and 2 used compaqs!!
Ba$t@rd$ just try to keep ME off open bsd. this episode just confirmed why I was looking for a better OS. /rant off
