I was hoping to avoid that, but that’s gonna be my next move.

Unless I forget and break windows again. Words can’t describe how tired I am of choosing the 37 different options during the install, updating the OS 4 times and installing my apps and deleting bloat. 😂 Windows 11 is great and all, but Microsoft loves to make it unbearable to use.

Yes that’s present and working.

Issue is that my BIOS doesn’t find it either. So something happens when I install a linux distro that breaks the Windows boot loader.

When I reinstall Windows, I can update the grub and it shows up. (It’s also back in the BIOS after reinstalling)

Yeah, I have to do that after reinstalling Windows again. Just did and that solves the issue of getting it into Grub so that I wont have tot go through the BIOS.

But when I install Linux, the Windows boot disappears from the BIOS too. Even tried to find it trough the «Repair» options when booting from a Windows USB, but it’s just gone.

Is it possible that Windows and Linux shares UEFI partitions even of they’re on different drives?

It shouldn’t, but that’s about the only thing I can think of that does this. I already know how to find windows in grub again, but it’s also gone from the BIOS boot options and it happens very specifically after installing Linux on the other disk.

Already installed Windows again so I can’t do that. But I could disconnect the Windows drive when I install Linux.

Maybe asking this on a Windows sub would be easier? I suspect this is a Windows issue and not a Linux one but I’m honestly not sure.

I am. Windows is on a 2.5" Sata SSD while Linux is on an Nvme M.2 drive

No not really. Played a lot of GAMMA and Anomaly throughout the years so Stalker2 is something new.
