[size=1em]Why not UEFI (well I get it)? Better yet why not LL UEFI?? -- the version Jerry has works VERY well. [/size]

I would not --- GPT is a part of UEFI.. or as quoted - https://www.aioboot.com/en/gpt-legacy/
[/size]

Quote:[size=1em]GPT is modern and has many advantages over MBR. However, there are also some issues with GPT booting in Legacy BIOS mode. [/size]
[size=1em]GPT is part of the EFI specification, of course it will work best in UEFI mode. [/size]
[size=1em]But maybe it will not be compatible and can not boot up on the BIOS computer,[/size]
[size=1em]Might work - Might be a lot of effort -- Might not... [/size]

[size=1em]I would either[/size]

[size=1em]GPT -> UEFI [/size]
[size=1em]MRB -> Legacy[/size]
