   Converting the boot mechanism to UEFI

   Given a Linux-only system running on two discs (SSD and "normal"), I   
   have been trying to work out how to change things to use the UEFI boot   
   mechanism.   
   The SSD ( /dev/sda ) has room to spare, although not at the start of the   
   drive.  The system-main partition is also on that drive.   
   The only instructions I have seen are for Debian-based systems.   
   I'm aware that I could do an initial install - re-partitioning the SSD -   
   and that would get me there, is that the only way?   
   The Motherboard is only a couple of years old - as you can guess by the   
   use of SSD - so there are no technical constraints.
