Hi all, Just wanted to update y’all about the move. Windows worked with zero issues, it just rebooted a couple of time and then took over the boot menu, and I couldn’t get to grub. Basically windows told grub to kick rocks and put itself at the top of the boot sequence. No big deal and fixed it real quick.

Grub did get messed up, it wasn’t there. A chroot from a live environment, and a couple of commands fixed it.

All good and running now. :) Thank you so much to all who replied and helped. Y’all are amazing <3

    Usually dual boot on the same drive is where things break.

    Windows tends to play Pac-Man with other operating systems in those cases.

    But either way happy you got it running and enjoy :)

      Thank you. I’ve actually separated their boot partitions from each other a long time ago since each one is on a separate drive. Windows still wanted to take over, no sir. Smacked it around and it chilled down. Lol

    Any UEFI secure boot enabled distro will remove all boot entries without a valid package key or a shim to a valid key.

    Glad you got it working.
