    initial v1  
    11I suspect the reason that the anyboot didn't work as AHCI HDD is that it didn't find a GPT-based partition table. EFI Shell only showed the disk found as MBR, which suggests we need a protective MBR with GPT, which the anyboot currently doesn't do.

     3Although, that doesn't explain why USB HDD worked without dropping into EFI shell... the anyboot image really is a bit of a monster :-/

     5Perhaps we should drop the anyboot tool and solely use `xorriso`? I'm still trying to grok their documentation (really is terrible), but it sounds like it should be able to produce a USB bootable ISO with both MBR and UEFI support...
