you have not created a bootloader stage1 target device.
I have windows 7 and i am trying to install fedora alongside windows.
Installer boots in UEFI mode and i dont have any option to disable that in boot menu. so i had to start in uefi mode. i have done folloing partitions /boot 500 mb /boot/efi 300 mb /home 20 gb swap 8 gb / 22 gb(approx) now, when i select done, the error says you have not created a bootloader stage1 target device. and you have not created bootable partition. Can not boot in bios mode. so it is not a solution. How do i solve these two errors? i dont have any linux os pre-installed. so how can i get rid of this? :/ |
Which release of Fedora are you trying to install? The current is Fedora 20 which uses Grub2 and there should be no stage1 file.

There was a bug in F19 that had a similar error on Macs, but it was fixed in time for F20.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1010495 Seeing as how you're most likely not using a Mac, how are you mounting the UEFI partition? Is it sharing the Windows UEFI partition? One thing I've done in the past is creating an additional EFI partition. I believe they fixed the issue with sharing it with Windows, but if it's not working on your hardware, I would create another one and just give that to Fedora. The only drawback that I know of is that you won't be able to dual-boot in GRUB, you'll have to load up your UEFI utility and select which OS to boot. |
