[ale] new UEFI/windows8.1/Linux

[Damon L. Chesser]

This is actually fairly easy.  At most, you only need to turn "secure 
boot" off in the setup of the bios.  The distro installer will do the 
rest, at least every one I have tried, especially Fedora and Ubuntu.

All the normal rules apply:  use windows to shrink windows to give you 
unused space.  Make a backup of your install before you begin.
