There should be a record of what failed.  When you get to the grub
prompt, try 
ls /usr/bin
to see the commands available to you.  I think one of those should be
journalctl.  I think it is possible to switch to another console
using Ctl-Alt-F?, and that one of them has logs that you can examine
with less.

I'm not familiar with the dual boot install, but I think I
recall that Windows sometimes uses a fast boot option, and that linux
can't find that.  I wonder if grub2 is not able to put its records into
the EFI partition, and so is aborting.

I've used the netinstall CD for fresh install into partitions that I
had already created, the custom spoke, and it worked fine.  Are you
trying to install in legacy bios mode on an EFI system?

Just some things to look at.
