Keys and boot help
I've REALLY read a bunch of comments the past 24h, here and wiki. I'm just noob, please be comprehensive 🥹
Mobo: Biostar b660t-silver
CPU: i5 12400f
GPU: RX 6600
NVME: 1tb Windows 11
SSD SATA: Bazzite deck iso
Só, everything works fine with my installation bazzite system. But can't boot on w11. I know it's sth about the keys and enrollment, but just couldn't figure out with the steps given here or docs.
Appreciate ur time and patient, hope someone can gimme a step-by-step guide

What error do you get when you try and boot Windows 11? Is it complaining about your bitlocker recovery key when you try to boot into Windows?
It doesn't show the Windows option anymore.
Not showing in the BIOS boot menu even?
Nope
if you run
sudo fdisk -l in the terminal do you see anything like this? I've highlighted the windows partitions that are important to see
🤣
Man... I just figured out the EFI partition wes not created when installed fresh w11 on the nvme as there was one already on the SATA. But I cleared the SATA for the bazzite install 🤡
I appreciate your help.
Soooo... tinkering too much here. I deleted the Bazzite EFI too.
I'm on w11, have already allocated free space on both drives for each EFI.
How do I recover the EFI part to Bazzite? Or need a clean install?
Sorry, told u I'm noob
I did the exact same thing a few years ago. Had Windows installed then installed PopOS and I formatted the drive that was supposed to be my secondary drive and well... yes Windows had it's EFI partition on the other drive because it was listed first lol
I'm sure that it's possible to recover the EFI partition for Bazzite but that's something I have never tried before, so I have no idea at all. If/When you re-install it might be best to physically unplug the drives that you are not working with. I've always found that to be safer. When doing OS installs
