When launching Windows, everything works smoothly, but attempting a Linux environment (like ChromeOS, Ubuntu, or SteamOS) gets stuck during startup.

The components involved are? Any signs of faults or clues that could clarify the issue?

Previously, Linux systems needed a distinct file system format (GPT), while Windows used an MBR.

MBR equals BIOS GPT; UEFI Windows relies on GPT across nearly all computers since most run UEFI. Both Linux and Windows support this format, but the main issue often lies in the bootloader setup. Your query is: Which bootloader are you employing?

The logs display the precise error message: "Error: Unable to connect to database."

Both Linux and Windows accept MBR and GPT formats. It seems Windows 11 may have reduced MBR support, while Fedora might phase out MBR in the near future.

Navigate to BIOS settings and disable Secure Boot.
