Hello
I want to get a "yes" or "no" about pushing my EFI patch [#1] in archiso that enables EFI CD-ROM booting via "El Torito" method. At least from Thomas or Dieter, since I did not get feedback from other people than Keshav P R (Thanks you).
Just for remember this patch just increses the size of all x86_64 isos in 20MiB.

Thanks.
Does it also increase size of the dual image? the dual image is currently 732MB, the others are <410MB It seems like a useful feature, but I don't really know what I'm talking about. I know very little about archiso and EFI. I mostly care about AIF and being able to install systems (including using EFI), and it seems that to be able to do an EFI installation (which needs efibootmgr), the system needs to be booted with EFI (otherwise the efi vars won't be set), that's all I know about this.
