Grommunio on NON-UEFI systems when using official ISO

ckd

It's possible to install Grommunio on NON-UEFI Systems/VMs using the official ISO. I was doing this -- by accident I should add -- and it didn't end well after updating to OpenSUSE Leap 15.6. It shouldn't be possible at all, when using the official ISO.

Last installation worked here on vmware as always..

And i also upgraded such machines from previous releases afaicr

It's not really a Grommunio related problem -- I know that. However, the official ISO should deny installation if the VM does not support EFI. On Proxmox for example, you will later run into problem -- as described in my first post. As mentioned above, I created a new VM and -- by accident -- and forgot to switch to EFI. Shit happens. 🙂

So yeah, just a suggestion to improve the official ISO and make it fool-proof.

As an alternative, the administrator could check whether EFI was selected during installation. I have never had this problem myself, as I probably select EFI automatically, since it is currently the most sensible boot method.
