I tried to install deepin on my Toshiba laptop. AFter installing it like I do for every distro tried with this laptop. The computer would not boot after installing deepin. So I was wondering if efi boot was supported yet.

I have the same problem. I install Deepin in UEFI mode. But it can't reboot in this mode. Then I change the mode to Legacy, works well. I don't like this.

如果您的电脑主板为UEFI模式,请在主板设置中关闭“安全启动(Secure Boot)”

in UEFI mode, you should set the Secure Boot disabled

Okie I see what you saying Ulysses, but the issue is it won't work on a most of the new laptops. A specially the ones with windows 10 preinstall. I have secure boot disabled. the one part that got me kind of scratching my head is if you turn on legacy boot the efi boot is active.

Manjaro and Ubuntu worked around it by letting people make the partition table Vfat. Then of course your mount would be boot/EFI

I have it running, I had to cheat and clone parts of my efi  to make the laptop think it was a Windows install.
