Hi Adam,

Could you give us a bit more information about exactly what you've
done please? There shouldn't be any need to copy files to a FAT32 USB
drive for UEFI - simply dd the installation image directly onto the
drive. Also: which version of the installer did you use, and when you
say the "installer fails on boot" what exactly happened?
