I got a Zephyrus Duo laptop with Windows 10 and Linux mint dual booted. I've recently heard about Nobara, and I'd want to distro hop to it as it has all my daily apps, more recent drivers, and good Nvidia support. It would replace my linux mint partition.

Thing is, my laptop came in with windows bitlocker, and secure boot. The former isn't really an issue as both OS would be on different drives. But the latter prevents me to boot Nobara as it's a unsigned distro.

I'm wondering about whether I should sacrifice secure boot for Nobara, and if I should, how to deal with windows being bitlocked.

I don't really use windows anymore but I do still need it, so no, I won't uninstall it.

Any help and tips ?
