>From my experience with UEFI systems: Windows no longer messes your boot completely (it just sets up the default entry to BCD loader) and you can just select linux loader from the startup menu. So you don't really need to have a minimal cd image. Just switch default boot entry back to grub in UEFI setup, boot back to your installed system and update grub config. I was having another problem though: if you already have an EFI partition and it's small then windows installer will try to create another one, but then it fails after copying files since it's unable to decide which partition it should use. Should be fine if you're using an empty drive or if you don't have an EFI partition on that drive. But if you have - I suggest you make it larger.
