From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'll have to give this another try tomorrow when I'm more awake. I probably should have just asked here when I had grub issues in the first place.
So I guess this is what the guides are saying, but I seem to get stuck on the installation step with this error
grub2-install: error: this utility cannot be used for EFI platforms because it does not support UEFI Secure Boot
. Hopefully I understand it better once i'm more awake. Thank you though!You need to turn off secure boot in your bios maybe
Turning off secure boot in bios did the trick for me when I setup Mint with Windows 11.
