Fellow /g/entoomen, could anyone please explain how UEFI works with grub and vice versa?
>have windows 10 with UEFI in one disk
>disabled fast boot and secure boot in bios
>install Kali and grub on another disk
>grub boots into Kali just fine
>grub shows Windows Vista (loader) but loading it results in "a disk read error occurred" message (pic related)
>bios still detects a "windows boot manager" record which automatically boots into Windows 10 but doesn't detect Kali at all
What do? Can I change the grub to somehow boot into Windows 10? Or add an EFI to Windows to boot into grub instead?

Also here's the windows Vista loader script.

I've got bad news for you.

You could try fiddling around with easybcd

Anons please, I'm trying to escape the botnet.
Pic is my boot override in bios. Also, I may have CSM enabled if that affects anything.
Maybe you need to have both OS on efi boot? Just installed yesterday a second distro and the first one got its grub fucked up right after the install
(first used bios and the second efi)

Tried it, it said a lot of things were locked down.

>on efi boot
Can I edit it from somewhere or do I have to reinstall the whole thing? Right now the /sys/firmware/efi folder doesn't even exist.

>>56006925
desu I have no idea
This one was my first efi install ever
>>56007199
I'm assuming my Kali is booted from the bios and not efi...
grub blows. especially if you are using debian.
>>56007293
Any better options?
>>56007722
refind
>>56007760
Will look into it thanks
Try switch your BIOD boot options back to Windows Friendly Bullshit(tm) if you want to boot windows.
I was fucking around with a friend's laptop and ... don't quote me on this ... but I got the impression that the bootloader was stored in a different location depending on the BIOS setting.
I can't be fucked googling it because I don't use Windows. Try it and report back.

I can boot into Windows just fine from bios and grub from bios too. I can't boot to Windows from grub or Kali from EFI however.
Thanks anyway anon.
>>56006730
If you're using Kali you should be able to figure this shit out on your own,
Maybe stick to a harder to fuck up distro and just liveusb kali?
