Hi,

I'm planning some small changings for BIOS -> UEFI changings in the
installation-guide.
No big deal, in many cases just changes "BIOS" into "BIOS/UEFI",
but I wanted to provide a patch here nevertheless for review/comments.


Thanks
Holger

Just applied, thanks.

Together with what we already have about UEFI in
https://d-i.debian.org/doc/installation-guide/en.amd64/ch03s06.html#UEFI
it should now be sufficient to close this bug:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=905173
"[installation-guide] Document EFI firmware as successor of BIOS"
Thus tagging as pending.


Holger
