I'm OK with dropping bios. But I didn't know about the possible VM problem.

i think it is good. Time to move forward. The bios screen takes me back a few decades.

I'm personally against removing legacy boot. People generally create VMs using legacy boot, so this could be a huge headache for many people if they have a lot of VMs (myself included). Legacy is still almost always the default on hypervisors like Proxmox or SUSE Harvester. Most people doing VMs are also probably using Leap, not Tumbleweed...

@opensuse please don't stop to provide old computer support with legacy boot. Because there are still many of their computers and laptops that still survive today including mine 🙏🏼😟
