Whello im trying to dual-boot Bazzite on Windows 11. i heard this is one of the few distros that allows for secure-boot to be enabled. In the options, I chose ASUS laptop, nVidia GPU and KDE and get a message saying 'your selected hardware doesn't support steam gaming mode at this time. the desktop version of bazzite is still available'. my GPU is a RTX 4080. I then formatted the drive in Rufus to be NTFS so that i can mount my drives easier. When i boot from BIOS, i get stuck on the GRUB menu saying 'minimal BASH-like something something'. I try to locate the flash drive Bazzite is on via 'ls', but none of the partitions (hd0-3) have it. A user told me formatting to NTFS is the issue, but i'd like to be certain. please help me

VI force rebooted and now it no longer starts...

Ktry something other than rufus
Kand make sure you aren't using legacy bios mode
KI recommend fedora media writer
LAll good, could pull up keyboard and tab around to duplicate screen
Whow do switch to another bios mode? and thats fedora media writer?
KLegacy bios, sometimes calles CSM, is in your BIOS
Kmake sure it's off
Kand yes, fedora media writer is best
DThe Windows container? It stopped starting with the podman-compose command?
Wi'd like to ask if secure boot, hibernation and fast startup must be disabled too? i heard mixed statements. im aware that some distros can boot with secure boot while others can't
VYeah, my battery died abruptly and it was giving me a storage mount issue. I've just restarted the install now.
Kfast startup should be disabled if you're sharing an NTFS drive (which you shouldn't anyway)
Khibernation can be enabled
Ksecure boot is supported
Wgreat
Dtry appending
--replaceso i'd like to share the drives between windows and linux, but since you said that fast startup should be disabled, is there an easy workaround to mounting drives?
Kdisable fast startup
Kmount the drives
Kdo not ask for support if games won't launch from those drives
VI did, didn't work. I've deleted it to restart now anyway.

Wi just right click on a drive and click 'mount', right? or is there a terminal command? sorry if i sound like a noob. i just wanna make sure im doing everyting correctly
Kguide for mounting drives is in our discourse
Kagain, I must stress, NTFS is not supported
Kwe are not responsible for data loss and you can expect any steam games on there to absolutely fail to launch
Wok so i'll re-format to FAT32. will that allow games to launch?
Kno
KEXT4 and BTRFS are the only partitions supported
Kwith BTRFS preferred
JAin’t it funny how there is more support for GPD handhelds on Linux than there is on windows
WBTFRS. got it. why is there a risk of data loss? Or in other words, what causes the data loss?
KRisk of data loss is because the NTFS driver in Linux is not made by Microsoft
Kand NTFS is not open source
KGame issue is because NTFS/Fat32/ExFat do not support features required by proton
Wi see. so with BTFRS, there is less risk of data loss
Wand proton works with BTFRS. got it
Aeh, but is there more support? i have a win 4, not sure how it has more support on Linux vs Windows 
JGPD does the actual bare minimum it is crazy
Mbtrfs also supports deduplication
