Hello,

Successfully installed F19 (a few months ago) with UEFI and it boots
into Fedora with no issues.  Trying to boot into Windows gives an
error about finding the EFI files.

On investigation, I find that there are two EFI boot enabled
partitions.  One has the Windows files (/dev/sda1) and the other is
the Linux boot partitions (/dev/sda4).

How do I move or change the configuration so I can dual boot in
Windows as the grub menu selection for the Windows boot manager
doesn't point to /dev/sda1.

I am willing to do a fresh install if needed.


I have a similar problem, I have windows 8.1 and Fedora 19 installed,
but I can't boot windows from the grub menu.  When I try I get:

/EndEntire
file path:
/ACPI(...)/PCI(2,1f)/UnknownMessaging(12)/HD(1,800,...)/File(\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\)/File(bootmgfw.efi)/EndEntire


error: cannot load image
error: you need to load kernel first

Press any key to continue ...

So I'm looking for a resolution to how to boot windows and Fedora 19
with UEFI enabled.

Thanks
Paolo

This is the same warning I get.

When I ran
  gparted /dev/sda1 print

it let me know that there were two EFI partitions on the drive.

The missing bootmgfw.efi is in the first (/dev/sda1) partition while the system is using /dev/sda4

Could be the same resolution.
