If you are having problems with UEFI on a vendor's box, you might try
running Intel's LUV-live (Linux UEFI Validation) distribution, to test
out that UEFI implementation. Look at the output of FWTS and CHIPSEC, at
minimum, for any problems.
https://download.01.org/linux-uefi-validation/v2.1/
Or, run FWTS-live to run FWTS interactively.
http://fwts.ubuntu.com/fwts-live/
(Ignore the FWTS Secure Boot test results, they're only useful for
Ubuntu, not helpful for Debian.)
If these firmware tests show problems with your Samsung, then any
OS/distribution, like Debian, may have problems with that system.
Hope this helps.
