UEFI is supported in just about all distros these days. Three of my Linux machines all run in UEFI mode currently. Will your machines boot from 'live' (usb) distros without going through the 'bios' ( or whatever it is called ) ? I.E... On my pre-uefi PC I have set the bios boot order for usb first. I put in a live Linux usb, turn it on, and it boots. With the uefi PC's, I must go to the 'bios' each time .... There is no boot order setting . By what I've seen, Ubuntu is uefi capable but not most distros. Since I don't have Windows, I can't try the Rufus route .
