Hello there,

I just want to buy a new gaming system, laptop, because I want to be mobile. There is only one game I cant give up that is league of legends. So I'm searching a manufactor, which can handle dual boot perfectly. I mean everytime I boot into windows and want to reboot into linux again, so my entry is gone (refind, systems and grub). Maybe there is a brand which separate two OS Hardware wise or has a BIOS espacially for such a case?

I am unfamiliar with refind, but from my experience with systemd & grub dual boot, if you do not change your boot order in bios, there is a high chance that the windows boot manager will brick your Linux one, even across drives. My advice for dual booting is to ditch the convenience of using one boot manager. But once again, this may not be an issue you have.
