distinst VS weywot

Still got a lot to figure out. This is the first time I'm tinkering with MUI (NGL. It feels like the Win32-esque API that had been missing from GNU/Linux for all these years). Eventually, I'll write an OS installer that will use MUI for the GUI and the excellent distinst for the installer routines.

I wasn't sure if it is a bug or intended behavior so I shared my thoughts about it on Mattermost and thanks to u/jacobgkau now there is an open issue about it on GitHub.

There is the PR from earlier this year though I am not sure the priorities they have right now, given the new DE work.

Already finished a few months ago https://github.com/pop-os/distinst/pull/286

Besides all is not despair and sadness because there is currently a proposal (https://github.com/pop-os/distinst/pull/286) to add btrfs as a target file system from the installer, so that all the post-installation footwork will no longer be necessary). As you can see it must still go through QA but it's promising!

Ah, this is a known issue: https://github.com/pop-os/distinst/issues/196 https://github.com/pop-os/iso/issues/224

There is a feature request for this, but it hasn't gained traction or mention. https://github.com/pop-os/distinst/issues/256

this seemed to have quite a few recent steps on how to do it specific to pop!_os as that's the distro i'm using: https://github.com/pop-os/distinst/issues/171

done: https://github.com/pop-os/distinst/issues/254

WeyWot's GitHub has many great guides ( https://github.com/spxak1/weywot )

So you press F9 or F12 and boot from the bios selection ? No problems that is the easiest method, and recommended, but if your having problems you could try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4idr6sXSue0&list=PLS_d8s-cLQwWWLePiVWve1X-_YP6YrwRU&index=10 this is rEFInd easy to setup and maybe it will solve your boot problem, then you will know it is something to do with the Bios boot, and lastly, probably the most difficult duel boot is editing the systemd bootloader of Pop_OS https://github.com/spxak1/weywot/blob/main/Pop_OS_Dual_Boot.md approach with caution, you could lose the ability to boot either system if you make a mistake.

I currently am trying to dual boot pop os and windows. I have them in separate drives. Yesterday I was following the steps provided by this GitHub https://github.com/spxak1/weywot/blob/main/Pop_OS_Dual_Boot.md. After running windows though the systemd option disappeared from my boot menu. I booted into a live disk to try and see if I could find the drive but only my drive with windows shows up. What do I do?

Refer this

Don’t throw windows out, it can be useful, I’d recommend dual booting. For the distro, I’d go with Fedora (Workstation) or PopOS. Fedora’s hard to break and reliable as well as easy to dual boot (guide) while PopOS is Ubuntu based so it can draw from Ubuntu’s giant popularity, but it’s not the easiest to dual boot (guide)

Using a more sophisticated method, like ed2k is preferred if you can. There is also this.

In many guides and other post I see people copying the EFI Windows folder similar to this github on a boot partition of approximately 1GB. But the arch wiki recommends installing the package ed2k and mapping a script to boot directly from the Windows EFI.
