[xubuntu-users] Help with dual booting to Xubuntu and Windows 8.1

Hi all!
I was wondering if you might be able to help me setting up my computer 
for dual booting Windows 8.1 and Xubuntu 14.10.

It's installed correctly, but when booting up my computer (an HP 
pavilion g6) it doesn't give me the option to go to Grub, and simply 
boots straight to Windows.

There doesn't seem to be any option to change the boot order in my bios 
settings. If I turn legacy booting support off, it does give me the 
option before it boots Windows to go into boot settings, and from there 
I can boot to Xubuntu - but that's a rather roundabout method.

I've turned secure boot off, and tried boot repair (results here: 
http://paste.ubuntu.com/9879711/ ) to no avail.

Let me know if you have any ideas about how to boot to Xubuntu easily!
Cheers,
Harry
