Sounds like what I did/do with windows 10 ; since it doesn't involve Grub , probably won't be a problem ...... In my case however, the uefi, I believe doesn't label the drive with the drive name, but changes it to "windows" or "qubes" , which concerns me , as I think it incorrect, I think that may be how uefi works ymmv, why not try it what is a "windows uefi" ? looks to me like https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/multiboot doesn't apply to you, its for single disk dual booting -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
