I resize Windows 8 ntfs partition. Boot from Fedora 18 full DVD and install it with secure boot and UEFI mode enabled. Installs without a problem. Reboot and goes to Windows 8 without asking anything.
I installed Fedora 18 in legacy mode with windows 8, boots fine to fedora but Windows does not boot in legacy mode. I then change legacy to UEFI and Windows 8 is not there. There is message OS not found. Changing back to legacy and booting to Fedora still works fine.
