I had having trouble installing grub of linux so I perform Boot Repair to do but now appearing this message:




SFS detected.

You may want to retry after converting Windows dynamic partitioning (SFS partitions) to a basic disk.

This can be performed via tools such as TestDisk or EASEUS-Partition-Master / MiniTool-Partition-Wizard.

Do you want to continue?




So may I ignore this message and continue?

          I simply just performed Boot Repair

          With Advanced options
          enter image description here



          Main options

          Check Reinstall Grub under Main options tab
          GRUB location

          Select Linux Distribution from OS to boot by default under GRUB location tab
          and

          Check Place GRUB into: to Disk in which your linux distro is installed.

          for example sdx, sdy, sdz.
          GRUB options

          Check Purge GRUB before reinstalling it
          MBR options tab will be disabled
          Other options

          Check Place the boot flag on: and select your linux distribution that is listed

          and press Apply button.

          There was an error after it done but this installed grub and other OS win 7 also was added to grub.
