Criterion reads: The installer must be able to install into free space alongside an existing clean Windows installation and install a bootloader which can boot into both Windows and Fedora. a. Since free space is atypical, this phrasing implies the installer doesn't need to be able to resize or resize correctly. Since it's an offered scenario in the installer, I think at this point it should be required to work and thus incorporated into the criterion. b. For BIOS installs, the requirement for the bootloader to boot both Windows and Fedora is reasonable. It's probably not reasonable, still, for UEFI. GRUB2+os-prober really isn't acting as a suitable replacement Boot Manager, so the user either needs to use the firmware boot manager to choose a bootloader (bootmgr.efi for Windows, grubx64.efi for Fedora), or some other boot manager (rEFInd or gummiboot). Clean Windows installation reveal reads in part: The expected scenario is a cleanly installed or OEM-deployed Windows installation into a single partition. Issues caused by recovery or 'system' partitions may not be considered to violate this criterion, depending on the specific circumstances. I think those two sentences are unworkable. OEM deployed Windows is multi-partition. > In particular, what's the default > 'multi-partition' layout of Win7/8? I've only recently BIOS installed Windows 7, and it's two partitions to an unpartitioned disk. I think for EFI installing Windows 7, it's three partitions. For Windows 8 EFI, it's four partitions, so I'll guess it's one less for BIOS.
