there is somewhere proposed (when I remember correctly in an elder bug report concerning the same problem) to use the dual boot system of the other OS, in my case this would be Win 8.1, or a workaround. I disagree with these proposals. I would like to use a downgrade of Grub, if this downgrade works.
Kind regards

What it does do is remove the most obvious big dual boot bugs from broader community beta testing, so that hopefully if there are more obscure bugs, they get found. Showstopper bugs tend to inhibit that testing. On some systems it's necessary to do a grub downgrade to do any post-install testing of a dual boot UEFI system right now. -- Chris Murphy -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
