How to get windows to not do disk checking or ruin my bootloader when i add a linux partition on the same drive. I don’t like the windows panicking when there is a linux partition on it and doing a variety of things, even if its not on the same ssd it STILL does disk checking but I have not seen anything worse than that on the same partition, but I need the space.

Dunno if this belongs in the linux subreddit but I mean if there is any way i can hide linux that could also work.

    set up a second efi boot partition

    This may or may not work. Recognizing a second ESP on the same disk is not required in the EFI standard. So it’s down to your board’s implementation if it works or just stops the moment it finds the first one.

      Whereas I agree that it’s not guaranteed to work, I have set up more then a dozen systems this way and have never had it be an issue.
