Nice setup
I have a question:
I bought a Acer Aspire M5 (Ultrabook) and tried all ways to use Arch Linux with UEFI enabled (dual boot), all without success. Is there any difference in performance (beyond security) changing from MBR to GUID? If the difference is significant, I will try to exhaustively use Linux and Windows in UEFI mode.
Cheers

Thanks Renato.
The answer is no. Guid remove MBR limitations (number of primary partitions, size (+2TB), etc...). My experience is that this duo (guid and syslinux) is faster than other (MBR and Grub).
Maybe you don't has disabled protection keys of UEFI. ArchLinux won't boot if those keys are enabled. But if you disable this keys, you lose the extra protection of UEFI... xD
So... here is the question XD
I hope that this answer help you.
