I am completely new to 9front and was trying to install it on an old 32 bit laptop. After downloading `9front-8392.16c5ead832f2.386.iso', I launched the setup using the instructions in In the `partdisk' step, after erasing all the existing partitions on the hard disk, I pressed `w' and `q' and now the disk has: esp "EFI System Partition" (550.00 MB) plan9 "Plan 9" After successfully completing the installation, the OS is not detected by the laptop, which of course is not able to boot with EFI. I repeated the installation hoping that some option to avoid EFI was present, but I didn't manage to find it and I can no more find this prompt: Shall we create a blank EFI partition table (GPT) or install traditional DOS partition table (MBR)? How to create a traditional MBR non-EFI partition table and how to make it bootable? Thank you! Rocky
