So all the guides seem to start with installing MacOS first, or Windows first. My system currently has 4 Linux distros, which isn't bad since I used to have 9.
Will Clover overwrite my existing EFI partition and GRUB entries?
I attached a picture of my current partitions. This is a GPT disk and already has an EFI partition with GRUB on it.
As you can see, there is a spot with 68GB free. Am I right to just create an HFS+ partition in this space and then run the installer from my USB stick as per normal?
When I run Multibeast at the end to install Clover, will it simply add an entry into my EFI boot options and leave GRUB alone?
My hope is to still be able to hit F11 during boot, which pops up a list of available UEFI bootloaders (currently only GRUB), and be able to choose either GRUB or Clover.
I have a lot of experience with Linux, but not MacOS or Clover. I've only installed it in a VM and on an old non-EFI system.
Thanks for any insight!
