I have one drive, 1tb with Pop_OS, and another, 500 on to which i want to install windows. (I know, I dont like it either but I want to play VR games via link cable cause ALVR is really mid) So, I put the ISO on a drive with ventoy, booted it up, got it all going. started to install windows on the empty drive. So, after the five steps it kicks me out of the installer and now, I can’t acess the second drive. Even through moving the boot order on BIOS, it always loads me into pop os. The only time it ever didn’t do this is one time where it seemingly randomly gave me boot options, two of which were Pop_OS and one was “windows boot manager”, which when selected turned off my computer and promptly i booted right back into Pop_OS. Can anyone provide some advice? TIA.
FYI: Pop!_OS 22.04 uses systemd-boot, not GRUB.
I use rEFInd, which auto-detects my Windows boot partition. Though I had the Windows installation before the Linux one.
Systemd-boot should be able to detect a bootable Windows too. Those 3 boot options you saw once was systemd. Try to set that up as preferred boot manager in your BIOS/UEFI and you’re set.
