Before I get too committed to this machine I might want to install in UEFI mode for whatever protections it might offer against getting hacked.
Which would be wiser, stick with old legacy, or install in UEFI Mode.
Go with UEFI. I doubt that it significantly affects the chances of being hacked. However, GPT partitioning is better than legacy partitioning, and UEFI booting is more flexible than legacy booting.
Any experiences? and recommendations? Is OpenSUSE handling all aspects of UEFI well these days? Are upgrades a pain?
Yes, opensuse is handling it well, unless it is 32bit UEFI (this shows up on systems with Intel Atom processors). Upgrading is pretty much the same as legacy upgrading. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
