I have an intel atom with fedora on it.I see efi config file in /boot/efi/EFI/redhat ,but efi config file specifies that it is a dos/windows application.

I used dmidecode cmd and found out that that system still uses BIOS.Here s the output

Handle 0x0004, DMI type 0, 24 bytes

BIOS Information

Vendor: Intel Corp.

Version: DPP3510J.86A.0216.2007.0502.1916

Release Date: 05/02/2007

    EFI – Extensible Firmware Interface is now advanced to UEFI.

    All implementations are in C only as you thought.

    Refer UEFI

    To start work in UEFI

    1. Download the EDK2 Tree from SF.net and follow the instruction.
      There is a edk2 developers forum. For UEFI Specifications, plz go to UEFI.org
