    TIL how simple it is to setup #ThinkPad #UEFI #dualboot (providing one OS is #Windows)

    - Install Windows, leaving space free
    - Install #osOfChoice (#NetBSD in my case) into free space
    - Copy preferred bootx64.efi into /EFI/Boot
    - Set ThinkPad BIOS to boot from the drive, *not* "Windows Boot Manager"

    Default boot is now osOfChoice

    To boot Windows, press F12 and just select "Windows Boot Manager"

    Confirmed on #T480 and #T430

    Had been using #refind (which is still great for more complex cases)
