Bug Description

Hi,

Using "node read" from the MAAS CLI does not display the bios_boot_method for a node. You have to look in the database to find it. It's not exposed in the MAAS web UI either, as far as I can see.

Could we please get access to this information ?

Thanks

This is with MAAS 2.3.0-6434-gd354690-0ubuntu1~16.04.1

Hi Junien,

Is there any particular reason of why you want to have access to the node's bios_boot_method attribute? I'm trying to understand what's the use case.

The use case is that I need this information to decide if I must create a /boot/efi partition or not (see also related bug 1747685, which got marked as a duplicate of bug 1591336)
