Until you update your EFI and have forgotten all about the fact that non-Windows EFI boot images need to be registered with the Secure Boot key store even if Secure Boot is off. And that the key store is wiped when updating the EFI.
And then you spend an entire afternoon trying to find out why your Linux boot every isn’t even recognized by the EFI anymore. Fun.
Well, it makes little difference in the end; Windows should keep its grubby fingers out of someone else’s partitions. Whether this be Linux, MacOS or - yes - another Windows installation.
I honestly never had isses as long as both are kept on separate drives
I hade i wipe my secure boot enrollment for Bazzite once. Had to reinstall the whole thing to fix it.
