Geez, that is some stupid situation, I kinda got excited with oryon going on android since it is their only ip that is currently being opensourced.

IDK man but my tinfoil hat says that apple are the one who is pulling the strings on arm with regards to this.

Personally, I really would not advise dual booting because the hassle is not really worth it, unless theyre on seperate drives.

It is because of mbr vs gpt partition and some weird bs from laptop manufacturers

Mbr are mostly on older systems and could only support up to 4 partitions, legacy boot works on this, so if someone decided to add another os, it adds another partition and most likely to jank that persons pc

Gpt is newer, could support more than 4 partitions, runs only on efi, so someone would be like, cool, why not set my drives to gpt instead

Unfortunately, most laptop manufacturers do some bs called instant lock to secure boot if you change to efi boot, the problem with secure boot is that it only works on 1 os, the manufacturer of that laptop already decided that you’ll only run 1 os and its windows, so dual booting on efi is a no go

So if you really need windows in a linux machine is vm, try vm. Most vms support pcie passthrough, (unless acer has some weird implementation).

Or the other way around, nuke your linux then return to windows.

Or if your laptop has 2 drives, then you can go 1 drive linux, 1 drive windows.

What i usually do nowadays when doing a fresh intall of windows is by using winNTsetup because it avoids too many steps if you have already decided to nuke the drive. You can download it from majorgeeks or have it preintalled on most portable windows like hirens, dlcboot or medicat.

Edit: oops my bad, sry, i got some bad reading comprehension, youre doing dual boot, ignore what i’ve said.

Dual boot is troublesome, even if you managed to make it work, it could mess your system, like for example, a windows update that could mess your grub partition thats why most people avoid it and use vm instead( qemu, vbox, etc.)
