UHi, You absolutely can run modern Linux versions with UEFI. I'm doing it without any problems. A word of caution though: If you're going to dual boot Windows and Linux, do yourself a favour and disable Windows Fast Startup before installing Linux, otherwise it can supposedly cause problems related to the UEFI partition. To be on the safe side, don't re-enable the windows fast startup feature after Installing Linux either. I currently have fast startup enabled in my dual boot configuration, and haven't had any problems yet, but it's probably safer to go with regular startup. Before installation I just shrank the Windows partition (can be done either with the diskpart CLI program or the GUI disk management program) and then I told Linux to use the free space.
