Hello!
I have Windows 8 Enterprise Evaluation and Fedora 17, both OS are 64 bit, on dual boot.
Windows and Fedora work OK, with one problem - i can not shotdown computer from Windows.
When i hit Shutdown, computer begin shutdown, but there is no shutdown, only return me on windows login screen.
Restart is OK, shutdown from Fedora also OK.
This problem only appears on dual boot Win8 - Fedo
i installed fedora 17 lxde on my computer the installation was fine all the windows files are still there but my boot loader changed and when grub boot loader loads it has an option to windows but its a recovery mode xD. i believe thers nothing wrong with my dual boot installation since i have three partitions NTFS.
Hi all,
I had since the beginning a problem with the boot loader: on my system there was at the beginning Windows 7, I then added Windows 8 consumer preview and just last week Fedora 17 64-bit.
The boot loader always displayed just Fedora options and Windows 8 (boot loader); selecting Windows 8 the computer was restarting, and prompting the Windows 7 and Windows 8 options.
What I always wo
I have a new laptop (Samsung) and installed Fedora 64 bit on it a little while back. I am dual booting Windows and Fedora. In the meantime I have had two more boot options show up in Grub. They were not there at the beginning.
Installed Fedora 16 x86_64 LXDE a few months ago.
Before installation I resized my C:-partition from inside of Windows so I could get some free space to install Fedora on (so I would be able to dual-boot with Fedora and Windows Vista). The installation went fine and Fedora is usable and all BUT I am not able to boot Windows Vista anymore!
Hi
I have a laptop with 2 hard drives. 60 GB each
I have winXP in harddisk 1
I want to install fedora on harddisk 2
I go through the installation of fedora 12 from DVD. but at the end when system reboots I do not get the dual boot menu. and laptop boots directly to windows.
At present I have a dual boot system with Windows 7 and Fedora 14. I want to re-install windows 7 but most probably it will replace Fedora's boot loader. I have a lot of things set up on Fedora. I want to keep these things intact.
Brothers from India and abroad please help..... There is virus in my windows and it just hangs after I select windows in dual boot. I tried my windows installation cd but it also does not run. I am able to boot to Fedora 11 from dual boot. and so am sending this message to you all. how can I access my windows files and run or delete windows software or if possible delete virus from Fedora Linux.
I just got an HP Envy dv7 series laptop which came with Windows 8. I used Windows tools to remove the recovery drive and shrink the main windows partition to make room for Fedora 18. The installation process for Fedora went reasonably smoothly and I now have a system with a working Fedora and Windows 8 both booting with Secure Boot enabled.
