Installing OpenSUSE next to Windows 10
Installing OpenSUSE next to Windows 10
Last night I successfully set up OpenSuse instead of Ubuntu desktop. However, the issue remains that even after installation, I can't access the grub menu to switch between the two operating systems—it always boots into Windows 10. The Windows 10 setup is on a different SSD, while the OpenSuse installation is on an 80GB partition on another drive. What’s missing?
Yes, the OpenSUSE drive is set to have a higher boot priority compared to the Windows drive.
The BIOS should display a boot options interface or similar. Within it, you can configure the sequence in which the BIOS scans your storage devices for bootable files. If the Windows installation has higher priority, the BIOS will evaluate it first and initiate a boot without checking the other drive. You can also access the boot menu by pressing F12, DEL, or another designated key—check your motherboard’s manual or online resources to confirm the exact key. The boot menu allows you to choose which drive to use for startup.
