Hi,
is it possible to use an old Board (Asus M3A-H/HDMI) with non UEFI, AMD 4850e and a 4 TB HDD (or bigger)?
A GPT-HDD is independent from UEFI and could basically be used i.e. with Grub. So it is on nas4free ...?
Thanks a lot!
Regards
Thomas

May be this could be done with Clover: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cloverefiboot/ ?
If this would work: Any idea, what configurations are needed? Here is the Wiki-Link: https://clover-wiki.zetam.org/Home
