Re: Setup Fedora on UEFI-Laptop
Andreas,
You can safely destroy/wipe the "Microsoft Reserved, Microsoft ESP (the
present EFI System Partition), and any other windows generated
partitions, ( assuming any data that matters from c:\Users\<username>\
has been collected and stored in a backup or other disk. If this will
be a sole Fedora boot ensure `Fast Boot` is disabled as it can create
issues with *nix booting. If you have any future questions feel free to
ask on this mailing list OR the users(a)lists.fedoraproject.org mailing
list, if you are IRC inclined you can even ask for more real time help @

Andreas Aßmann:
On a new Laptop (UEFI / Secure Boot / GPT-specific partitions
"EFI_System_Partition" and "Microsoft_Reserved_Partition") I intend
to
replace the pre-installed Windows-10 with Fedora-LXDE which will then be
the only system on the hard disk .
When installing Fedora, have I to preserve both of the two partitions
"EFI_System_Partition" and "Microsoft_Reserved_Partition", or can I
wipe
both of them or one of them?
Thanks in advance. Have a nice day.
Andreas
