I tried a UEFI install, but it failed at installing the bootloader.
The system is a Zotac Zbox nano AD10. I downloaded the image from the
above URL and put it on an SD card and did a UEFI boot. I don't have
anything current on the drive, so I chose not to preserve anything. I
tried a minimal install; no problems up to the bootloader, which gave me
an "unknown error".
Also, I tried to report the failure to BZ or save it, and I got another
"unknown error".

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
