efi: skip on unsupported target architectures There's a possibility to run into IA32 EFI but that's rather uninteresting hardware (ancient Xeon servers and <s>outdated</s> early Intel Mac laptops). Just drop it on the floor. As x86_64 UEFI support would result in "2D hybrid(r)(tm)" image which boots with all combinations of BIOS/UEFI by CD|DVD/Flash (or at least should boot), some downgrace seems due: use/efi will turn use/isohybrid on non-x86_64 -- which will require further tweaks on PPC/ARM some day.

ifeq (x86_64,$(ARCH))
initial EFI support EFI/UEFI is mostly about partitioning and bootloader setup, at least from a distribution's point of view; so the appropriate tools should be handy and firmware interface module should not be exterminated from installer images but get autoloaded instead. Please note that while there exists 32-bit x86 EFI we don't bother with it at the time being: it's relevant to some irrelevant Xeon systems as well as for the older Intel Macs (<2008) that are long out of fashion anyways. That is, initially we deal with x86_64 EFI only.

efi: employ mkimage The initial approach required some quite involved postprocessing as described in http://www.altlinux.org/UEFI#HOWTO; after having ironed out the kinks so that initial EFI support could be merged into mkimage proper we're better off just using it, eh?
