Comment 11 Roger C. Pao 2014-01-24 17:45:32 UTC 
Apparently, the correct way to install is to shrink Win8's partition and NOT create a new empty partition for FC20.  FC20 Installer auto-partitioning will then be able to detect the EFI system partition and create an LVM of the remaining free space.  It just won't give you much details of what the partitioning will look like if you attempt to view it first.
Comment 12 Roger C. Pao 2014-01-24 17:52:49 UTC 
Oops.  It erased the existing Win8 efibootmgr settings (which I did not make a copy of) only leaving the new FC20 entry.
Comment 13 Roger C. Pao 2014-01-24 18:02:44 UTC 
Windows Boot Manager was added to GRUB menu so GRUB can choose FC20 or Win8.  You can ignore comments 11 and 12, but the installer did crash initially as specified in Description.
