Solved!
Go to SolutionWUBI doesn't work with Windows 10. I don't think you can even get to the BIOS without booting Windows first. Even then, it may be impossible to turn off UEFI and get a clean Linux boot. It looks like Dell and Microsoft has made a native install of Linux on the XPS 8900 impossible for the user. If someone knows how to do this please correct me!
For dual boot, I configured the BIOS to boot the Linux partition first.
And grub's OS prober should automatically add an entry at the bottom of your grub menu to let you boot Windows, allowing you to boot either of them:
Something like this in /etc/grub2-efi.cfg:
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober ###
menuentry 'Windows Boot Manager (on /dev/sda1)' --class windows --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-efi-AF97-6351' {
insmod part_gpt
insmod fat
set root='hd0,gpt1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,gpt1 --hint-efi=hd0,gpt1 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,gpt1 AF97-6351
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root AF97-6351
fi
chainloader /EFI/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
}
Booting Linux from the Windows boot loader is harder.
- Hello All, Sorry for may be disturbing you, I am also using a desktop Dell XPS 8900. But me I'm trying to dual boot Kali linux with Windows 10 and I'm having that same error (AER: Corrected error received: id=00e0). Please, I would like how can apply the suggested modifications for this case. Thansks in advance. Best Regards.
Problem is that Legacy mode is going away.
32 bit is already end of life.
Intel plans to remove CSM and Legacy by 2020.
All new pc's will be 64 bit only, Secure Boot only, windows 10 only.
This locks out older Linux and dos and windows versions forever.

I ran into the same problem initially: the system would just hang early in the installation process. Editing the grub command line to boot the kernel with the following option solved he issue for me:
pcie_aspm=off
You obviously have to make it persistent after installation if you don't want to have to edit the command line on every boot.
