Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grub2-efi-2.02-0.13.fc21.x86_64
os-prober-1.65-2.fc21.x86_64


How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg since most recent grub and os-prober updates.
2. At GRUB menu choose "Windows Boot Manager (on /dev/sda1)" option

Actual results:
Failure to boot. Pressing any key returns to grub menu.

Expected results:
Should boot.

Additional info:
Fortunately the firmware responds to F12 so I can choose the Windows Boot Manager, which boots the system.

Secure Boot is enabled.

If disabling SecureBoot helps, I think this is a dupe of bug 1170245.
