The only issues I ever encountered when it came to caldav and webdav is when I want to integrate them in Apple or Microsoft Outlook. I have not had any issues on my android phones, Linux Laptops or even the Windows 10 Calendar App.

If you are brave and have time: Wine

Running Fedora as a secondary OS from a Thunderbolt SSD. What I can tell you is that my Bios still seems to be in charge (pun intended) of the charging cycles since it wouldn't charge past 80% and I never set this in Fedora.

Otherwise runtime seems about average under use and the estimated time left on the charge seems correct.

Did you though? What instructions began with "Install VirtualBox"?

None 🙈 I just assumed I could replace the USB I would need for a live media.

Did you even try just booting the ISO directly?

I was under the impression just slapping the ISO onto the USB and trying to run from the boot menu selector would not work.

I'll wait till Tuesday. Thank you for the heads up! The reason I choose to use a VM over a live USB is because I just don't have another 16GB USB lying around that works for Linux. I honestly didn't know that the ISO in the VM would behave so differently. Is that simply a limitation of the Distro or is this intentional?

I am tempted to say I would try to configure that but looking at the (rightful) backlash I got so far I will stay away from that for now.

Trying my hardest to get Legoland, a 2000s game to run on Wine. Now it only crashes when you don't skip a cut scene or when you try to open the map

I was installing on an external ssd. So basically a live bootable ssd

Um. multiple Linux OS's?

I fcked up with the terminology there. Should be Distro's 🙈

Using VMs to what? Why?

I thought I could take the ISO, run it as a live media from the VM and then install the Distro onto the SSD using the media creation tool that pop's up first thing after starting it. That's at least how I remembered doing it back in the day for the Ubuntu sticks I created back in school

My friend - you took the hard path here for somebody not "technical enough for Arch". Dual-booting is tricky to begin with nevermind doing so with Windows and external media involved.

When I started in October I had the innocent belief I could just read through the documentation and I could get it to work.

Nono I was going for a multi boot portable install.

The T7 is an external SSD. I got Ventoy to work on the T7 with Fedora (also with Tails), I just couldn't get the persistence to work for Fedora too. I think that's where I took a wrong turn. Instead of trying to figure out how to get that "selinux=0" command to work for Fedora, I should have properly reassessed my goal and started from scratch. I kinda fell victim to the sunk cost fallacy.

• I explicitly wanted to not have yet another USB. I still think Whonix will work will be enough for what I need :) • Can't fully commit to Linux yet. I still need Windows for work. • Thank you for the advice :)

Well I was thinking I was doing it when I installed Fedora through the Fedora Media writer 😅 The Grub rabbit hole really just came after I tried to figure out how I could get that boot option to work that Ventoy required

I expected some difficulty but I didn't expect that creating a drive with two distros and a third partition for file storage to be this difficult. Even if we shave it down to my current goal (one Distro and a file storage partition) I have more trouble than I would expect the average user to bare.

The SSD is external and I wanted to boot into multiple Linux Distros. It seems like Ventoy is the only one to allow me that without relying on the windows bootloader on my laptop
