It is NOT recommended to use manual mode and create a separate EFI partition when installing on a dual-boot UEFI system. Doing this is almost certainly why you were unable to boot back into Windows until you installed rEFInd. I have corrected this wiki page to try to make it clearer that manual partitioning, and creating an Ubuntu-specific EFI boot partition, is neither required nor recommended. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040557 Title: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C,np700z5c laptop To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-cdimage/+bug/1040557/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
