Which way western man?

Coreboot or bust.

>>109408399
in both cases, (some) windows update will delete grub/systemd-boot.

BIOS without UEFI/Secure boot, MBR

Why would Windows make changes to drives that are unrelated to the OS drive?

Just install Gentoo

I don't care as long as my OS boots. Like I thought I might, but I really don't. I also rarely boot anything but my main OS. If you care, you're more autistic than people who stress about gtk vs qt.

>>109408399
The first one is less complex and more stable
I tried dual booting and ended up deleting windows after a week after realizing linux does everything I want, if you dual boot but keep windows very likely you'll end up having one specific thing that can only be done with windows so you won't need to switch to it often

What?
>>
>>109412359
all the maintainers are red hat and oracle employees

plus grub2 is such an overengineered piece of crap it could only come from corporate devs

I can't argue with it. It sucks ass.

Try systemd-boot, it really is simple and good.

Windows likes to be in the first in line. If you put it on a secondary drive and have something other shit like Linux on the primary drive, windows will erase shit on the primary drive for itself.

You'll have to ask Microsoft

>>109412441
nta, what about Limine? It is very straight forward to configure via a config file as *nix programs should be.

>>109408399
Doesn't the boot selector select which drive to boot from, and then the bootloader on the drive boots the OS? I don't think you can choose.
>>
>>109414852
I read the diagram wrong I thought the bootloader chose between two different drives. In This case I would ALWAYS use the option on the left if I could.
>>
>>109414852
>>109414870
there's always a bootloader step, your os can't boot otherwise.

in any cases, uefi should let you chose a drive to boot on, but you can't select partitions. meanwhile the bootloader lets you select partitions.

nevertheless, windows like to wipe the bootloader on the partition it's installed on.
