if your machine is already dual boot I guess you already did most of the hard lifting, you just have to break that windows bad habit now :)

I had removed the partition and now I'm having a PITA to get PopOs to install at all.

"This GPT partition label contains no BIOS boot partition".

I'll need to figure out what's wrong there.

Just needed to boot the USB drive as UEFI rather than just boot from the USB drive. I swear these are hurdles for the sake of creating them...

Installed battle.net as a non-steam app and forcing it to use proton. It's installing and I haven't had to do anything. That's a good start at least.
