It's running Windows 8.1 and so uses UEFI. I am looking at my options for getting Fedora 20 to install. Most of the posts I have seen say I should just disable secure boot for the Fedora installation. But this leads to a sloppy situation where you have to switch BIOS settings to boot one or the other OS (or so it appears). I could also just install Fedora in Virtual Box, but I see that as a last resort. Does anybody here have experience in overcoming the roadblocks of UEFI? Is one distro easier than another when it comes to dealing with it?</div>
