Probably the standard storage proposal won't do that for you since it's a very nonstandard setup. It will work for sure with the expert partitioner, and maybe also with the guided storage setup (but I haven't tried that). It's very simple to create the necessary partitions, including the root partition, a swap partition that is not shared with any other OS on that machine, your separate /home, and whatever else you might want. What's the problem with that? I don't know what you mean with "its own UEFI"; do you mean the ESP (Efi System Partition)? AFAIK there can be only one on a machine, and that is defined by the EFI standard; this is where the EFI bootloader lets you select what OS to boot. You can't have more than one of them. As a YaST developer since 10/1999 I have constantly been installing multiple instances of SUSE Linux, Ubuntu, Windows and whatever in parallel on the same machine; on one disk, on multiple disks, in all kinds of permutations. I am doing this on a regular basis, and I have done that with at least a dozen machines over time. So, what exactly is it that you are missing? What makes you think you have to physically disconnect any disks to achieve this? I think you are making this artificially overcomplicated; you might be overthinking the problem. Maybe take a step back and simply try again without confusing yourself. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
