Hi
I have
first installed WIN 10
second installed UBUNTU 20.0 wiht (/boot, / and /swap partition)
I though I can great a GRUB Bootmanger with EASYBCD - but it does not help.
Wenn I click NEW ENTRY in the Bootmenu the LINUX/BSD tab edit boxes are all grey!
HOW CAN I MAKE A GRUB ? Did I pay for EASYBCD for fun?
Please reply
Thanks

Nothing that EasyBCD can do to circumvent MS's absolute prohibition, but grub's happy to boot anything UEFI or not.
