I install new releases of fedora by installing in
a virtual machine, then rsyncing that to a real partition
and editing fstab, grub.cfg, and the grub environment
file to change all the UUIDs and such to the ones of the
new partition. I've got a stand-alone tiny partition with
grub installed which I use the configfile option to
boot the real system. This is all just using a ms-dos
style bios.

A windows box will almost certainly require UEFI, so I'm
not sure how much more complicated it would be to get that working.
