Hi,
I am trying to install Fedora on an old ASUS R503U which came with Windoze8. The boot options in the BIOS have Windoze Boot Manager, Generic USB, etc. My plan is to install Fedora and wipe out the other
i think that you are in UEFI mode and you see the Windows Manager that registered itself to EUFI list of bootables ... you can choose "sda" (your actual drive) and then install a linux.
So, do I add a new boot and say "/dev/sda" or just sda? Again, I am planning to erase Windoze so there should only be the linux partitions.
I could not find the option for disable UEFI but i can see and install from the live cd usb.
Many thanks, Ranjan

OS.
My question is what I should add to the boot option in the BIOS in lieu of the Windoze Boot Manager. Normally, the bios entries for machines I have previously installed says "Hard Disk" and I never bother with it much. Any suggestions?
Many thanks in advance and best wishes, Ranjan
