> Windows installers are still hostile to other OSes (I think) This only happens in two specific cases: 1. MBR + same physical disk for both OSes; 2. Bad UEFI implementation on the mobo + same physical disk for both OSes. Otherwise it should work flawlessly because their bootloaders are independent and it's only a matter of setting the desired boot order.

it also overwrites \EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI, which is annoying if you were using that to boot linux.
