did not seem to be affected by this bug.This bug affects multiple linux
distributions.ASUS support is unwilling to solve thier end of the
problem.Solution in part is to ban all 990FX boards until this is
fixed.The bios is 64 bit capable.

GRUB2 wants to setup UEFI.It supposedly does this in a manner that
creates a NON-BOOTABLE installation.The bios wants partition 4 to boot
from, not the first partition where the EFI boot files reside.You can
only create a bootable Linux setup if you use msdos partition type,
forcing partition 4 to be bootable.This is only possible from jessie
live media. Writing the efi boot file to a USB stick does not work
either, but should according to intel x64 specifications.

Will test further on my AMD APU-based laptop.I have jessie, wheezy and
squeeze all on bdrom.This in itself is supposedly a bug; distributions
before jessie supposedly have no bdrom support.
