Ideally, I would prefer to dual boot ( two different drives if necessary) Windows 11 and Linux Mint. From what I understand, the crap Microsoft is pulling now will prevent this. Is it because of bitlocker?
Either way, another option would be to dual boot windows 10 and Linux mint. I would keep Windows 10 offline, which is why I would prefer to dual boot Windows 11, since it and Linux would both be online.
So are either of these scenarios realistic?
I’d like to get answers before my post is deleted. So thank you in advance.
Excellent. Thank you for the advice. Having the boott selection come up is perfect. It’s going to be a new build. I hope Linux is happy. Last time I did this I had all kinds of trouble and was advised to wait for people to write drivers.
also as a suggestion for a os selector, i really likr rEFInd personally. good luck!
So this would replace grub?
yeah it would
What makes it better?
it has a nice ui and in my experience it picks up boot media automatically (live usbs, ssds, etc), plus it comes in handy if windows ever does nuke your existing boot menu since the install from a live usb is easy
Drivers for what? Maybe that was 2008?
Probably. It was a while ago.
