Steamdeck-Ultimate-Windows11-Guide VS SteamDeck-rEFInd-dualboot

It's worked perfectly fine for me, just follow this guide.

All the latest information about it should be in https://github.com/baldsealion/Steamdeck-Ultimate-Windows11-Guide/wiki

I went through the same thing, and every source I read said it's best to install windows to the SD internal memory and use SD cards only for additional storage to whichever OS needs it. I used https://github.com/baldsealion/Steamdeck-Ultimate-Windows11-Guide/wiki/1.0-Getting-Started, and then ran https://github.com/CelesteHeartsong/SteamDeckAutomatedInstall

And follow this guide for setting up windows for the best experience.

rEFInd script

https://github.com/ryanrudolfoba/SteamDeck-rEFInd-dualboot - I used this guide, followed the uninstall instructions and the bootup still isnt gone, anyone know how I can get rid of it?

This will mostly benefit Steam Deck users who have setup a dual boot - SteamOS and Windows but does not want to use a graphical boot manager like Clover or rEFInd.

I followed this guide https://github.com/ryanrudolfoba/SteamDeck-rEFInd-dualboot

NOTE1 This is a continuation of my rEFInd script from here. The design goal is the same from my rEFInd implementation - make as little changes as possible to the system. The script only copies files to the /esp/efi/clover location and manipulates the EFI boot orders. Extra scripts are saved in ~/1Clover-tools which just manipulates the EFI boot orders, and an uninstall to reverse any changes made. There are no extra systemd scripts created, no extra power shell scripts needed and no need for EasyUEFI.

Dual boot is very easy. Personally I'd recommend adding partition of 60gb for windows and use SD card for games. https://github.com/ryanrudolfoba/SteamDeck-rEFInd-dualboot Is apparently an easy to use script that automates it
