Synopsis: amd64 iso is only bootable in efi mode on legacy Mac

State-Changed-From-To: open->feedback

State-Changed-Why:
I'm confused, what is the bug? we now support EFI (could be better), so this shouldn't be a problem, but if it is - it's a firmware one, a choice not to support legacy boot. We'll probably have more machines like this in the future.
