Just the disk. I'm not sure if i recognize an efi boot option. The disk is listed in the boot options by its part or model nummer.

No. With this knowledge i would say that i did boot on legacy mode always. And i still do. I'm sorry to blame efi for that because it can't be a fault of efi if efi is not used. But my perception is that this behavior change was with the uefi bios introduction.
