LOh ok, alright no problem, thanks
AFollow the dual boot guide the partitioning situation is complex
LI am not wiping anything, I am just trying to install bazzite, will dual boot alongside windows
AYou need an efi partition, a boot partition, and a btrfs partition with 3 volumes
AUse a separate efi partition for bazzite
AAll of it is covered in the dual boot guide
AWhich I also didn't follow and fail at first
LOk will keep that in mind, thank you
WWhen you boot from a live distro, you should be able to mount the efi partition from from within the file manager. You can also mount it via the "disks" utility in gnome if you cannot see it
LOk got it, should I just use bazzite for this?
WUnfortunately Bazzite and other atomic desktops don't have a live cd. So you might be able to do it via tty in the Bazzite installer but I find gui's a bit easier
LOk so which gui do you suggest? I am currently booted with gparted live iso, will that work?
WI think that will work
GGparted works well for this purpose
LOk wait let me try
LIt shows this error when I try to mount it within the file manager
R@Kyle Gospo updated DHD patch, the original had a timing typo in it: https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/ValveSoftware/gamescope/pull/1281.patch
Ause windows, it supports the efi partition
Aotherwise, dulvei gui or however its called is a viable alternative to gparted and built into the fedora installer
Ai want to say its supported
Abut at the same time i dont recall ever mounting an efi partition in windows
LNo wait I am doing it in Gparted via terminal
LOk done and now I am installing it, let's see if it works

LGood news @wolfyreload @antheas deleting the fedora folder from the efi partition did the trick, however, I'm not sure whether I am well off using the same efi partition as windows because I've heard that sometimes the windows update deletes other OSs from the efi
LShould I manually create a separate efi partition just for bazzite?
�anyone using an nvidia gpu and try out kde and gnome versions of bazzite? if so, how is the vrr between the two?
AYes it does
AYes you should
ABios updates also tend to wipe other OSs from the efi
AThen you're in efibootmgr hell
AWhereas the os of most PCs will always detect the default entry of an efi partition
AI made the mistake of using a single efi partition and I'm paying for it with every bios update
LOk understood, I'll do that now
L@antheas along with the partitions you mentioned, should I also create a swap partition?
ABazzite does not officially support a swap partition
LOk got it, will leave that then
AIf you want to you can but you're kind of on your own
LNah I'm good
Wdamn I'm pretty sure my RX 6600 is a shit bin, didn't luck out in the silicon lottery
Whas pretty bad stability issues when overclocked and/or undervolted
L@antheas you said I needed 3 partitions, I'm confused regarding the mountpoints, I need a boot partition with the mountpoint /efi/boot, a btrfs with a mountpoint /, and another one?

L@antheas I've done it, I haven't created any subvolumes as mentioned in the article, just the 3 that you mentioned
AWhen I did that it complained
ABut hey if it works it works
LIt didn't complain this time
LOk it's done installing successfully booted
LThank you @wolfyreload @antheas
