      I have it as a dual boot option. But, it’s not been booted since November. So I am assured I’ll need to rerun grub when I do decide I need to boot it for something I cannot do in either Linux, or a Windows VM in linux (that’s really a small number of things).

          Well, mainly you just need to keep the EFI entirely separate. That’s generally all you need. That’s what windows will decide to wipe and reinstall. I just didn’t do it this time. I think because of how disks were already partitioned.

        I get you, even i have to keep Windows for music and stuff. But hopefully ill be able to ditch it if My VST vendor supports Linux.

            I appreciate it brother, but Native Access 2 on Linux refuses to run. I might have to look for other vendors who support WINE. If you have suggestions, do give some :)

              The album I just released was made with mostly open-source tools, in particular LSP, Calf Studio Gear, and x42 were all made for Linux, and the two non-FOSS plugins (Graillon and Acon Digital Multiply) ran fine with yabridge.

            I’m not using VST. There’s a few games I got on Microsoft store some years ago which there’s no way (yet) to make run in Linux (at least to my knowledge). But, I don’t feel that much need to play them. At least not enough to boot into windows, complete the huge updates likely waiting and then fix the grub install afterwards just to play a game.
