I'm trying to install Linux on a new HP box that has UEFI instead of BIOS. 
First I tried Scientific Linux 6.2 (which is the distro I really need to 
run on the box) but it doesn't have any support for UEFI in it's 
partitioner. I then tried Fedora 16 and then Fedora 17 Beta. The closest 
that I've come is getting to the GRUB command line, on most of the 
installs the box doesn't see any bootable devices. Is there any distro 
that works with UEFI?
