Comment 3 for bug 1167617

In case somebody struggles with this do the following:

1. Disable Intel Rapid Start in the BIOS
2. Disable Intel Smart Connect in the BIOS
3. DIsable Secure Boot in the BIOS
4. Add a boot option like this:
a) enter any name
b) select the disk entry representing the USB device
c) this is where it gets interesting. On my first tries I entered "/efi/boot/bootx64.efi" and couldn't get it to work. What I then did I entered this again, then tabbed several times until the boot file field was seleced again and hit <enter>. Suddenly I a file selector popped up that I couldn't get to before. There I selected the file. What ended up in the field was this "efi/boot/bootx64.efi". Notice the missing leading "/". After that I rebooted, selected the new usb entry and my (Fedora 18) boot menu from the usb stick came up.

Maybe it was just the leading "/" that was the problem but I wanted to describe accurately what I did to get the system to boot from USB in UEFI mode.
