Keep dual boot intact Win11/Arch

[DuffleBag]

I'd like to play battlefield 6 and cod 6 season 5 but both require secure boot enabled.

Afaik, secure boot will 99% f up the dual boot. I have win11 on one disk, Arch linux on the other one.

Is there a way to bypass this secure boot in bios, so I can keep both OS without any intereference?

I appreciate the upcoming helpful answers.

You can setup secure-boot on Arch Linux. Just use sbctl.

If your distribution is Secure boot compatible then keep it on, but do make sure you have disabled windows fast boot/quick start this can play havoc when trying to boot to Linux, ALSO be aware windows security updates are well known to break Linux boot by re enabling fast boot [and secure boot if you had it disabled]

Thread 'Dual and Multi boot systems'

Oct 30, 2023

One thing many people do is make systems that will boot more than one choice of operating systems. This little article is a new and better way to do this. Often we have to fix the multi boot systems because an update changed something and damaged our grub configuration. Windows is especially good at doing this. So here is the best way to do this that allows you do make a multiboot system without having to do anything to grub or play with configurations.

This can only be done in a system that can accept more than one drive and an expansion card.

What you will need.

This is something you should look into. It will keep your dual boot perfect but only works for a desktop system.
