Hello
I formated my /boot partition in a UEFI system with my openSUSE installation (13.1 using KDE (gnome also installed)). Other partitions are fine, like "Restore", "DATA", "primary" and "Recovery" -windows partitions. Is there someone out here that know how to extract .wim files in a restore partition to a USB stick, or preferable edit/configure/setup grub in UEFI system to boot into "windows 8" again? Manufacture of laptop are not helpful, only saying I have to by a new windows copy:P Hope you have better information, I know you are more helpful!
I've installed wimlib-imagex but can't figure out how to use it.
Command as ("user" = root) :
