I'm assuming you're installing 22.10. The following will not be true for Orchid.

You have to create:

  • an efi partition: vfat 1GB

  • boot partition: ext4 1GB

  • two root partitions both: btrfs 20GB (label them a and b)

After installing you have to follow #1132349033525022750 to enable dual boot with Windows.

Be careful though, you could easily break Windows if you're not careful.
