Just took another look at your image and all 3 partitions are NTFS. I believe the boot partition for Windows should be fat16 like it is for Linux.

Ahhhh then windows boot partition has vanishedā€¦ iā€™ll see what I can do to fix thatā€¦

you have it working and booting? If so I donā€™t know if Iā€™d play with it any more, unless on the off chance it can cause issues installing EOS.

Welp. Now that I know Fedoraā€™s got my back Iā€™m kinda confident.

Iā€™ll try installing EOS again.

So where do you stand now? On the desktop you have only Windows? Manjaro was nuked? And Windows is not being nice?

My suggestion is to boot on the live ISO of EndeavourOS and use gparted. On the unallocated space you have create a new gpt partition. Then close and run the installer and select erase disc with swap and no hibernate and install.

Boot using live USB of Gparted. Format the second partition and try installing EnOS

Iā€™m starting to agree with you. They can claim terminal centric OS but I have mine setup so I have to do very little in terminal. I have it pretty much laid out as I would a Windows desktop. The way I set this up is also the way I did my roommates when he decided to take the plunge with Manjaro and got use to it pretty quickly.

This would be the optimal solution.

I can dualboot Fedora and EOS so I can do what I want and she can still use BM Davinci Resolve

The BM Davinci Resolve looks pretty high tech.
