Seems like this was on the agenda once, but was never done: #1756

PXE is starting to go away and therefore we need to be able to boot via EFI.

The Behaviour you'd like

Be able to create ISOs that can be EFI-booted.

@watologo1, @SchoolGuy: Do you guys now what is needed to make this reality?

I try to talk with Raymund about this and have a closer look at it. Probably not before next year.

As part of #2220, I changed cobbler's buildiso code to use xorrisofs. It may make sense after the fact to change this to use xorriso more fully, since it's the only ISO making tool I know of that everyone has that supports producing EFI-capable ISOs.

I switched livecd-tools/livecd-creator to use xorriso last year for similar reasons: livecd-tools/livecd-tools@686e5b6

32-bit UEFI is used in some cases to boot to 64-bit OSes, so probably?

@loreson If it is possible without too much trouble I would also like to see this happening.
