Yesterday, I tried to dualboot Ubuntu 16.04 onto my hard drive, creating a new partition for Ubuntu alongside my existing Windows 8. First, I disabled the fast-boot option in Windows 8, and still GRUB did not load, and it went directly to Windows boot-up. Then I did some research and found this article:
Grub not showing on startup for Windows 8.1 Ubuntu 13.10 Dual boot
Basically, I issued the BCDEdit command in Windows, and entered in the following code:
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path EFIubuntugrubx64.efi
When I reboot, I get a basic GRUB2 terminal, and after I type in the exit
command, then a second Shell prompt appears, and after typing the exit
command again, the GRUB2 menu to select the OS to boot finally appears... with only Ubuntu and Ubuntu memory test as options, not Windows 8.
After booting into Ubuntu, I tried to run the Boot-repair Utility, but that shows this following error: Legacy Mode vs. EFI session
How do I approach this problem? The Pastebin log is here: https://pastebin.com/3NHMxxFh
Thanks for the help!
