[opensuse] windows 10, 42.3 and uefi
Hello, It's the first time I have this problem and I don't know what to search in google. It's about an ASUS eepc, with 4GB ram and 300GB HDD, amd processor, uefi firmware. I started with 42.3 basic install and wanted to have it dualboot windows 10. I used a official windows 10 dvd on usb pen. I could boot, enter install system, but had to delete all the installed partitions for windows accepting to create the two install partitions (I guess EFI and windows on GPT). I used only 100GB. Then when I was to install 42.3 yast said it couldn't create any partition on the free disk space for partition table problem. What can I do either in windows or yast to solve this problem? I can probably start a recovery session to get infos as needed, but what kind of infos? thanks jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

You could start by printing the partition table using the rescue system on the install "disk", or any other live you can use. And post it here. Either copy it to file on usb stick or make photo. fdisk -l - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.

it looked very basic. I was at first thinking of a clean uefi install because there was two partitions (one I expected to be efi), but in fact it was not. Finally after 3 days of intensive tests, I just guess it's impossible to install Windows 10 uefi on this computer. There are no option in the bios to remove compatibility mode. A possibility could be that the nvram is populated with at least one openSUSE and one ubuntu entry, but in fact the copy file of Windows do not even complete before the computer crashes with a error message that say to go to what is blue screen crash windows basic, not informative. Linux (any version) installs with uefi without problems. Finally I install Windows 10 as legacy and this works but I wont be able to use this machine as uefi double boot test machine... I hate Windows :-( jdd -- http://dodin.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
