Hmmm. The beta4 netinst *should* be UEFI compatible already. If you're
booting off USB, how did you write the image to USB? I'm asking
because a lot of people are using unetbootin, and that's causing
issues for us...

Either of the first two should be easy enough AFAIK, it just depends
on your own preference. I'd go for grub chainloading Windows
personally. I know there are people working on a UEFI boot menu
program, but I've not got much details on that...
