Kinda hijacking, pardon me, but is there anyone reading who'd be willing to explain the specifics of "Microsoft eats boot sectors" or direct me to some documents?
I have a laptop with Microsoft / Linux partitioned on a single internal drive dual booting between them and have never... well never known that I had such an issue, but I've broken it in a lot of creative ways, and maybe this Microsoft greedy boot behavior would inform some of it and help me make it smoother
Usually after a big update, stupid windows overwrites EFI boot partition to windows bootloader instead of grub, which makes you crack out a USB to reinstall grub so you can access your linux system again.
Doesn't happen that often but still a pain.
Thank you very much.
