windows has a very bad habit of wiping out the boot partition, and dual booting on a single drive is not supported
Kcould be part of the issue
Tim installing bazzite first
Kit's not an install order thing, and doing bazzite then windows will guarantee it wipes out grub
Duse seperate drives
Kwindows will just randomly delete your boot partition, best you keep it on a separate drive
Tthere is a way you can manually partition the drives btw, but it's a lot of partitioning
Twierd i was gonna plan to put refind for dual boot
Tlike in the installer and it's kind of an unsupported method here
Tbtw i partition drives (i did custom partition)
Tsince it can mess up so bad
Kalso not supported, we warn against this in the releases
Ti partiton / for 348.89 and /boot/efi 50 mb
Kupstream Fedora doesn't support it either
Toh
Tdamm
Kif you install windows first, then install bazzite so it auto-partitions the remaining space
Kthat'll work fine
Ti should probably remove this from the docs since it's very advanced, but @chaiqi was able to dual boot with something like this (maybe i shouldnt remove it per say? if it does work i can keep it):
Tso windows first
Kyes
Tokay so i click no on the prompt and shutdown and put windows
Tam i correct
Tthen im doing that
Tyeah ngl i dual boot on separate drives
Tim not dealing with those headaches
Ti dont have seperate drive
Twell i just need directions thats all

Why is it called Bazzite? Fedora Linux’s image-based desktops are usually named after minerals or flowers. Bazzite is a mineral that is known for being strong, lightweight, and is colored blue. What image do I use? Images are split up between 2 types of images: Desktop Steam and other gaming utilities are layered to the image. No “Game Mode”...

Thuh?? so i install first windows is that it means
Tyes
Tokay and i take the space required for my oses
Ti assume lol
Tokay then
Trn im booting win 10
Tthat part of the docs i dont really know. thats kind of from someone else who experimented with like a quad boot setup
Tquad boot daym
Tyeah loool
TSaid nothin im dumb
T@crushbutimbanned good news! i tested the anaconda webui installer. it's very mouse driven although it didn't ask for a username/password so idk if that happens after or wasnt part of the demo
Tso like i want 128gb for windows 10 so i allow 128 gb partition right?
TIm installing it, now imma just watch youtube until it finishies
Tlool ok
Thope it works idk anything about dual booting on the same drive no matter what OSes they are
Talways did it separate or not at all
Twell when i will get my hand on an sd card i will for sure put windows on that
TNOOOO
T
Tdont put windows on a microSD card
