Cannot get a Toshiba Satellite L70 to Dual Boot Windows 10 and Linux


Folks,

I have been dual booting laptops for years, once with UEFI which I got after a lot of pain. I have just got a new Toshiba Satellite L70 that I simply cannot boot into anything but Windows.

I have installed Linux, I can see it there if I boot into a Live USB stick. I know it's installed.

I have tried this:

Then this

http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2263473

But replacing the Ubuntu stuff with Mageia directories.

I was sure that would work, but no matter what I try in coping grub into /efi/Boot or running bcdedit from Windows, it simply will not boot into anything but Windows and not even give me an option.

If anyone has any other things I could try I would be most grateful.

Many thanks!
