Bug#783263: installation-report: Installer assumes the computer uses efi without any suggestion



Package: installation-reports
Version: 2.58
Severity: minor

Hello,

during installation of a PC from the pre-EFI area I was faced by a
dialog (grub-installer/force-efi-extra-removable) that reads:

	It seems that this computer is configured to boot via EFI, but
	[...]

I'm sure my machine doesn't use EFI and looking into debian-installer's
packages/grub-installer/grub-installer it seems that there is no check
for EFI before the dialog is shown.

That is irritating, so I suggest to either change the wording of the
dialog or only show it if there are really some hints that the current
system uses EFI.

Best regards
Uwe
