Bug Description
I'm trying to dual boot Ubuntu 15.10 with windows 10. I have turned off fast boot in windows, and am at my wits end. I'm about to go back to fedora and give that a try. Hopefully, this UEFI crap gets resolved, and I can come back to Ubuntu.

You booted the installation cd in bios mode instead of UEFI mode. You need to boot it in UEFI mode.
