So, look what I wrote today:

(just plain https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/UEFI redirects to that page, too).
It's a (hopefully) not too long and not too technical help for installing Fedora on UEFI systems. Should cover the 'greatest hits' that show up in bug reports, forums and IRC the most.
That'll be very useful. Thanks!
If you happen to know the magic incantations to turn an installed UEFI OS into a BIOS-bootable OS or vice versa, it would be great to have that in the wiki.
(This is a particular pain point for me -- my main development box was originally installed as BIOS, and I switched it to UEFI, and I'm sure I did it wrong because the boot process is impressively finicky.)
Erf. I haven't done that myself in anger, so I'd have to give it a shot to give reliable instructions. My usual advice would be 'just reinstall it', honestly...
