Summary0002316: No EFI bootloader present in iso
Description

Kali does appear to have http://www.kali.org/news/kali-1-0-8-released-uefi-boot-support EFI support, but there is no bootloader for EFI systems in the ISO, making it impossible to have a EFI live boot. (My laptop refuses to boot kali in legacy, or uefi for that matter, but is fine with fedora, ubuntu in legacy or EFI) Suggested workarounds on the forums are also not working.
Thanks

Additional Information

Laptop is a MSI GP60

Our ISOS do include an EFI boot partition, mount it and check it for yourself. Your issue is probably elsewhere.
