We have an outstanding problem with 7.4 images on EFI, since platform

"grub2-efi" to "grub2-efi-x86_64". There's a patch pending here:

Hopefully merged soon.
In the meantime, using Anaconda from CentOS 7.3 via kickstart (with the
latest Node image) would work, but this isn't very convenient.
Otherwise, you can drop to a shell and manually copy
/run/sysroot/.../grubx64.efi to /boot/efi, but this isn't very nice.
Hello,
i'm installing successfully on Lenovo Flex System x240 M5 Compute Node
via PXE and boot through legacy mode. I did the required setup on
Foreman by creating new Provisioning Templates (kickstart and PXELinux
configs based on
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.1/...
with few changes)
I haven't been able to start the setup when UEFI mode is enabled, but
is a problem connected first to grub2-uefi (discovery works only on
Legacy mode, no deployment requires workaround:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1487107 ) and then maybe
to pxe firmware that loops on downloading the same
/grub/grub.cfg-01-MACADDRESS. But this shouldn't be related to oVirt
images.
Anyway setup done in legacy mode can't be booted via UEFI, because as
far as i can see no /boot/efi partition is created by autopart.
In case of start via cd iso image and using kickstart containing
autopart --type=thinp, will autopart understand that efi partition is
required and then setup everything needed?
