No mention of any windows'efi file anywere. I just rechecked on the
partition that I suspect to have it before my installation ( aka:
sda1, a 1GB large partition containing a folder named "Boot" at root )
and no more luck. Sounds like all informations needed to boot windows
lacks now... I guess I'll have to try to rebuild them, if possible,
or... reinstall windows? I doubt I can: the restore files were on a
partition that I had to delete to be able to create mines ( despite
any good sense, they used the 4 primary partitions slots, when only
one needed to be bootable! I wonder how could those people could say
they are computer scientists, really! And it takes no more time to
create secondary partition than primary ones... grrr! But at least I
know why I will never go back to default installations for my personal
uses. )...
Any idea?
You think they're dumb--dumb like a fox! They figure if they used up
all the partitions, it would keep people from installing another OS
on
the drive!
And maybe, in a few cases, it does!

I think that, using a limited resource which have one feature* when you
could use a not limited one which does not have this feature, is stupid
when you do not use the feature given by the limited resource. And that
people which uses limited resources carelessly without any reason are
stupid, yes.
I also think that trying to limit people's access to freedom is stupid.
Yes, it may be to have more money or whatever, and in a short time it
may seems smart. But I am an idealist which think about long time, and
being rich won't prevent them to die, or to be sad, while in the
meantime, it can avoid other to be happy.
In French, one of my grandmother taught me an expression, a long time
ago:
Mieux vaux une chaumière ou l'on rit qu'un château ou l'on pleure.
In English ( just a try to translate an adage... so a very probable
failure. ) :
Better a thatched cottage where people laugh than a castle where they
cry.
Sorry, I am limited by my English level here, so it may not be phrased
correctly and words may seems childish. Also, it is quite interesting to
consider that you choose the fox, for comparison. Foxes are animals
which kills a lot for nothing. So, well, now that you mention it, that
choice of word could be a good one :) except that those ones does not
directly kill other beings when they configure those computers.
*: ability to boot
