I changed my main machine over to Linux in the beginning of April, setting it up on its own NVMe so I could keep my other drive with Windows 10 intact and dual boot when needed.
I’ve been having a blast - ricing hyprland, better workflows, great gaming experiences.
Then yesterday I realized that I hadn’t actually bothered to dual boot once since testing out the Windows entry in my systemd-boot menu when I first set it up.
Guess who just gained a 1TB drive to install more games?
I wiped out the Windows drive with no remorse. Damn, that felt good.
Goodbye Windows, you won’t be missed.
This doesn’t really apply since he’s using separate drives for each OS
It seems a bit dated too, I definitely have a bitlocker disk mounted right now.
The TPM secure boot key part is true, but you can disable secure boot and use (on Windows) manage-bde to add a password based key. When you boot and it can’t load the bitlocker key from the TPM it prompts the user for a password.
I’m fairly sure there’s a way to bypass the secure boot requirement for Windows 11 too, I think I read about it but I’m not using windows so I didn’t look into it much.
