[Bradford] A couple of small jobs

[John Robert Hudson]

Hi Mike

I have just been given a Windows computer complete with UEFI. So I wiped off 
the Windows UEFI and replaced it with the openSUSE UEFI. The bios now comes up 
with openSUSE UEFI and not Windows UEFI.

So not a problem and, barring any damage to the BIOS, I probably do know how 
to fix it.
