Share all your storage between Bazzite and Windows!
63In this quick guide I build on what's came before in other videos. You want to install Windows and Bazzite but don't want to split your game volume in half to duplicate games or use your SD card for one OS or the other. Then this is for you.
I'll talk you thing what you need to do and which guides will help you the most on your way to setting up a single game volume that can be used with dual boot OS.
First things first I used @CyberDopamine guide on how to setup Bazzite • SteamOS Dualboot tutorial for Rog All... I used from about 13mins in to 21mins in. This was all I needed having first setup my Windows Partition and used Minitool Parition Wizard to reduce my C: Windows Partition down to 250GB. I left the rest unallocated.
If you want though I also recommend the original video from @aru3 Which I also used on one occasion. • Dual Boot Guide - BazziteOS and Windo...
In the CyberDopamine guide I deviated when he used all remaining space for the BTRFS partition, instead I used 50GB and left the rest to allocate as game storage later on.
I used this guide to mount my second BTRFS partition. https://universal-blue.discourse.grou...
Once you've got your BTRFS games volume up and running in Bazzite you'll need to install this driver in Windows - https://github.com/maharmstone/btrfs
