Fedora Atomic dualboot: is it somehow possible?

[boredsquirrel]

It is a known bug that the Fedora Atomic DE Distros are not installable if they are not allowed “to nuke your complete PC”

Poorly, there is another OS that has the same problem, that people often need to dualboot…

Could someone explain why this is currently not possible, and what the workaround or fix for that could be?

Actually I somehow had it installed and it worked. Rebased etc, everything working normally?

It would be really great to have this possible, as currently I need to use regular Fedora on a PC I am not always able to service, which is not that of a great feeling.

Following are your options:

• you can always use distrobox to run your other OS, there are a lot of images of other distros GitHub - toolbx-images/images: Community maintained container images to use with toolbx (and distrobox)
• use a virtual machine
• use another drive

Hm I think this should be possible with normal Grub.

This is about windows + the best “install and forget” Linux Distro. Multiple Linux distros are unnecessary

This is not quite true. In fact you can install Silverblue inside an existing Fedora Workstation installation.
