[Bug 1297069] Re: During the installation under UEFI mode, "Could not open \EFI\BOOT\fallback.efi: 14" shows after passed the BIOS phase.

Yu,

The point is that the message in question is shown because of a
legitimate misconfiguration: fallback.efi should be present and is not.
Once that is corrected, there is no need to remove the Print() call.

The other Print() calls removed in your patch are not shown in your
screenshot, so I'm not sure that they need to be removed either.

Bug description:
  During the installation under UEFI mode, "Could not open
  \EFI\BOOT\fallback.efi: 14" shows after passed the BIOS phase.

  I checked the source code and noticed that the messages are printed in
  function should_use_fallback(). If this function is just a detector
  then how about simply remove the output from this function to a
  provide a better user experience?

  Please refer to the attached patch.
