How to restore Windows 10 boot entry after installing Fedora 24
Hello Boys and Girls,
i decided to upgrade from 23 to 24. So i freshly installed Fedora 24 over 23 (Fedora got its own drive). Everything works as expected, except the Windows 10 boot entry was missing (the entry in the uefi-menu which appears if i hit F11 at startup). Sadly there is also no entry for my Windows in the grub menu.
Rebuilding the grub config did not work, os-prober cannot find the windows boot stuff. I've tried boot-repair via ubuntu live stick, which didn't work either,... but the log is interesting. It says for sda1 (Fedora) and for sdb1 (Windows) "No errors found in the Boot Parameter Block". You can find the whole boot-repair output here.
Please help me get my windows up and running ;-P thx
Okey, Fedora doesn't seem to be a friend of Windows
Cannot boot into Windows 7 after Fedora 24 upgrade
Unable to Launch into Any OS After Installing Fedora
Does fedora delete windows partition on installation or hide the windows OS
Help is very appreciated
That's a very strange setup for Windows. The windows drive doesn't have an EFI partition. How is that possible? The EFI partition on sda1 was created by the installer, so either there never was one or else the installer reformatted it. Can you provide the installer logs? Have you tried booting in BIOS (CSM) mode to see if it can find windows that way?
Seems 2 bugs have been reported : Common F24 bugs
Here we go, the installer logs (i can provide em all if needed):
/var/log/anaconda/anaconda.log
/var/log/anaconda/storage.log
I've enabled CSM, now i'm able to select the disk Windows resides on as boot device. But if i do so, i'm presented a black screen telling me: "Reboot and Select proper boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key" :-(
@yolo, those bugs aren't relevant in this case.
