Comment on Same SD card for SteamOS and Windows-To-Go?

I don’t know about SteamOS specifically but you can dual boot windows and Linux on the same drive. Each can exist on their own. The partition will still show up in windows but you can ignore it and it won’t do anything. The problem is Windows and GRUB for Linux. Windows has a bad habit of just bulldozing GRUB and making Linux unbootable.

Thanks for the warning.
This isn’t the Linux/SteamOS boot drive. It’s an SD card. I tell it to boot to the internal storage or the SD card using the option in the Steam Deck BIOS.
Because if this and because it’s a Windows-To-Go install, neither OS should interact with the other’s bootloader. Theoretically.

Ok I got ya now. So are you wanting Windows and Steam OS on the same Sd card as well as steam OS on the internal hard drive?
