You can have a look at Archboot iso for ideas on implementing UEFI support. For generating iso, you need to use xorriso (from libisoburn) (not cdrkit mkisofs). But implementing bootloader support in the aif script is a much bigger task. I can help you with implementing UEFI support in archiso but right now I am too busy to hack on aif . Or using original cdrecord mkisofs. The cdrkit is a museum piece! ;)
Oh but xorriso has an option -isohybrid-mbr (one step mkisofs/isohybrid), maybe we can switch now to xorriso preparing terrain for UEFI... See line 349 of https://projects.archlinux.org/archboot.git/tree/usr/bin/archboot-allinone.s... .

Thanks, while working on changes, I found that xorriso does not support UDF. We currently using ISO 9660 (level 3) + UDF. Anyway, I succesfully builded iso with xorriso, booting as cd-rom and disk. Support for UDF layer was added by Sven some time ago, so CC to he, to know opinions. -- Gerardo Exequiel Pozzi \cos^2\alpha + \sin^2\alpha = 1
