Nov 12, 2020 at 6:39 comment added avg9957 Just a side note, windows will only boot GPT disks in UEFI mode and MBR disks on Legacy BIOS mode. Debian can support both boot modes, but it helps for compatibility to have both Windows and Linux use only one boot mode. I would suggest having partition the drives as GPT so that you can boot Windows and Linux next time on UEFI should you choose to reformat your drives. I would recommend a UEFI boot mode setup instead as the default boot mode and never change it back to BIOS (My disks are formatted in GPT and Linux and Windows are both booting in UEFI mode).
