OK, coder peeps, I open the floor to you.
I want to run Linux distros alongside my Windoze 11 base. Mostly, Ubuntu, Mint, and maybe Arch for fun and laughs.
Can't do dual boot because my lapper is HP with an Optane memory module, and there's no way to disable it. That leaves either WSL2 or virtual with persistence via VMware or VirtualBox. (I'm running Windoze 11 Pro, so I can activate Hyper-V, but vhd/vhdx files don't play nice with Linux distros.)
Any suggestions??
