Quibble doesn't work when CSM is enabled

Open wozniak opened this issue 1 year ago • 4 comments

When I load Quibble it shows it loaded ntfs.efi and btrfs.efi successfully and then after a second it either boots the next boot option (if booted directly) or returns to the bootloader screen (if chainloaded).

I am on an ASRock B450m Pro4.

If I disable CSM, it gets stuck at 'Booting Windows...', but I don't think that's Quibble's fault since something similar happens with the default Windows bootloader when I don't have CSM on.

CSM switches to BIOS mode, so if Windows was installed in UEFI mode, it'll use GPT partitions which BIOS can't boot

You see this a lot, but I'm fairly sure it's not true.

Windows is installed in UEFI mode and I am on a GPT disk.

You can boot Linux off a GPT disk in UEFI-CSM or normal BIOS, you can also boot Linux off a MBR disk in UEFI, it's Windows coming up with the weird restrictions.
