Description joerg.lechner 2016-03-24 11:28:11 UTC
Description of problem:
In the Grub boot menue F24 and Windows 8.1 are shown. Hitting on F24 starts F24, hitting on Win 8.1 runs into an error.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
version supplied with F24 Desktop Alpha 1.7

How reproducible:
On my Acer laptop Aspire E 15 E5-571G-50K9. If this error occurs on other systems I don't know

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Acer laptop, harddisk with Win 8.1, F24 Alpha 1.7 on an usb flash medium
2. switch on laptop and in the Grub boot menue hit Windows
3. an error will be displayed, no boot of Windows 8.1 possible, the error is shown in a screenshot attachment

Actual results:
Bios version Z5WAH V1.09: "mokutil --sb-state" shows in F24 and F23 "secure boot disabled", with F23 boot of Windows ok, with F24 boot of Windows runs into an error. Update Bios Z5WAH to V1.31(the newest version): "mokutil --sb-state" shows now in F23 and F24 "secure boot enabled". But in F24 trying boot of Windows still runs into the same error, boot of Win in F23 still ok. 4 screenshots as attachments.


Expected results:

Comment 5 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 20:24:30 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not
able to fix it before Fedora 24 is end of life. If you would still like
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2017-08-08 14:05:44 UTC
Fedora 24 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2017-08-08. Fedora 24 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
