CONFIG_EFI_MIXED is disabled in SLE and openSUSE. Even if we official don't support systems with a 32bit EFI firmware, there are consumer machines out there which have them. Since we still ship a grub2 capable of booting machines with a pure 32bit EFI firmware, I did run into a lot of problems since CONFIG_EFI_MIXED was disabled: - YaST does not detect that this is a EFI system - efibootmgr cannot access EFI variables - wlan driver did not work - reboot does not work And most likely quite some more. I don't know which disadvantages this option has, but could we please enable it at least for openSUSE?
