I just got a new laptop and installed Linux on it. I mainly run OpenSUSE.
Getting full encryption on both was a bit of a challenge and I had no idea what I’m doing. Will having the swap partition in the middle break things? Did I really need so many partitions (Mint and OpenSUSE don’t show up in eachother’s boot menu)?
I’m probably not gonna change this layout (because reinstallation seems like a pain) unless the swap partition’s position is a problem. I’m just curious how many mistakes I made.
EDIT: I’m not upgrading my drive capacity. I do not need it.
You do want windows EFI separate as it occasionally likes to turf the Linux efi entries. With opensuse it will probe foreign OS and add chainloader entries to point to the other EFI bootloaders. You set the OpenSUSE to load first and choose mint or windows from the grub menu
