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.

      reinstalling grub is not so easy though, you need to know what you’re doing to fix this. It’s not an easy fix for a new user, because you will be running grub from a third party installation, not your normal Mint.

        maybe the easiest solution for these people is just running Linux Mint. And get fully rid of Windows. No grub issues :) And lets face it. this is anyway the best solution long term.
