| These are my notes to install rEFInd on the Windows 11 EFI partition. A lot of inspiration came from | |
| the following YT video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgipyyaxSmE. I did some research on the side too. | |
| ## Introduction | |
| On UEFI based systems, the Windows 11 installer creates a 100 MB FAT 32 formatted partition. By default, Windows 11 installs | |
| its own bootloader on this partition. We will install rEFInd instead to pick an OS to boot into at boot time. | |
| ## Installation |

| These are my notes for installing FreeBSD on a UEFI based system using the UFSv2 filesystem and encrypting it with GELI. | |
| ## Introduction | |
| I've set up Windows 11 on my Lenovo x280. I now want to install FreeBSD alongside Windows 11. | |
| I've already replaced the default UEFI boot manager with rEFInd. Now comes the FreeBSD installation. Let's go. | |
| ## Commands | |
| 1. Create a bootable FreeBSD amd64 USB key. Go to https://www.freebsd.org and download the latest release. |

| ## Introduction | |
| I want to install NetBSD 10.1 alongside Windows 11 and FreeBSD 14.2. I'm using rEFInd to boot into either one of these OSes. | |
| ## Commands | |
| 1. Create a bootable FreeBSD amd64 USB key. Go to http://ftp.fr.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/images/10.1 | |
| and download NetBSD-10.1-amd64-install.img.gz. | |
| 2. Burn the image onto a USB disk (dd or rufus). Make sure to enable the UEFI mode if you burn the ISO with rufus. | |
| 3. Boot off of the USB key and into the FreeBSD live system. |
