It is not that important to boot Windows, but as I have it, it would be nice to have double boot. There is one setting that I apparently can only adjust on Windows, the battery charge limit.
Ideas?
Windows (and it's system partition) must be the first thing on the *primary drive*. I doubt you will ever be able to boot directly from a USB (without quite a bit of fancy boot magic and trickery).
That's what I hopped, that somebody knows the magic. People that only use Windows will never put Linux in the mix and even less as main system, so they will not know. That's why I asked here and not "there".
I dual-boot W10 and Leap by virtue of having 2 SSD in the laptop so Win10 remains the primary and I just tap the bios and tell it to boot from HD2 to boot leap (with 5 hours added to the sysclock in between)
If you don't find a solution, then make sure you shuffle the W10 drive back in at least once a month (about mid-month) to make sure you keep it current.
No, I either boot windows on that usb enclosure, or never. I'm not going to shuffle the disks back and forth, too much stress for the laptop. I have the main laptop that doubles boot (single disk), and a virtual machine with W10. That's enough. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.3 x86_64 "Malachite" (Minas Tirith))
