Wanting to dual booting windows and bazzite when the only operating system installed so far is bazz.

I am wanting to try and dual boot windows on my legion go. But the instructions on the bazzite website only talk about dual booting when windows is installed first. I would want to try it know but how would I do this starting from bazzite to add windows to dual boot. I've already added bazzite to secure boot with the key as well.

This is what I did the last time I installed Windows after Linux. This was on a desktop so no idea if it will work on a handheld * Backup anything important * Boot into a Linux distro with a live environment with Gparted. Linux Mint works well if you can't think of one * Open Gparted and disable the esp flag on Bazzite's EFI partition. This will force Windows to not share the EFI partition with Bazzite * Then shrink your btrfs partition in Gparted to make space for Windows * Reboot and install Windows normally * You might need to install some custom software specific to the legion go on Windows * Boot back into Gparted live environment and set the esp flag back on in Bazzite's EFI partition * Boot back into Bazzite and run ujust regenerate-grub and you should be able to boot into either environment from grub.
