Apparently not this one. Or there is something else subtly wrong. I
use rEFIt to boot Linux on this thing, which should mean that it
booted as an EFI image, even if the kernel itself is not natively
using EFI (or even built to care).

But maybe rEFIt does something else than I expected it to do, so who knows..
