    Is that actually easily fixable? Was planning to go dual-boot soon on my laptop and haven’t even considered this scenario.

      My old thinkpads have this great feature where the hard drive is easilly accessible on the side, so I leave the cover off and just swap the drive to boot into a different os

      iirc the last time it happened to me, i just needed to fix the uefi entry which wasnt that bad.
      (just remember to have a usb stick with a live image ready)

      if it were to overwrite your bootloader that would be a way harder fix.

      i dont remember if the second ever happend to me
