Comment # 11 on bug 1052532 from
The issue of the installation media not being bootable in UEFI mode might be
due to the missing GPT on the devices. You might want to try creating a GPT on
the devices. This helps on my Thinkpad E470.

To create a GPT do the following, assuming the boot media is at `/dev/sdX`:

        # gdisk /dev/sdX
        GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.8

        Partition table scan:
        MBR: MBR only
        BSD: not present
        APM: not present
        GPT: not present


        ***************************************************************
        Found invalid GPT and valid MBR; converting MBR to GPT format
        in memory. THIS OPERATION IS POTENTIALLY DESTRUCTIVE! Exit by
        typing 'q' if you don't want to convert your MBR partitions
        to GPT format!
        ***************************************************************


        Command (? for help): p
        Disk /dev/sdX: 15138816 sectors, 7.2 GiB
        Logical sector size: 512 bytes

        Command (? for help): w

        Final checks complete. About to write GPT data. THIS WILL OVERWRITE
EXISTING
        PARTITIONS!!

        Do you want to proceed? (Y/N): Y
        OK; writing new GUID partition table (GPT) to /dev/sdX.
        The operation has completed successfully.
