Hey everyone! I'm trying to install Arch Linux for the first time and I'm pretty new to this whole Linux thing. I've mostly dealt with Debian-based distros before, and I'm now looking to dual boot Arch with Windows, which has Secure Boot and Bitlocker enabled.
From what I gathered, I need to disable Secure Boot during the installation, sign some keys, and then turn Secure Boot back on. I created a 4GB EFI system partition while installing Windows as suggested in the documentation. However, I'm confused about where exactly I should mount the existing EFI partition. The documentation warns against mounting it to /boot due to potential risks when dual-booting, and I also read it's not a good idea to mount it to /efi. Since I'm planning to stick with systemd and don't need a fancy bootloader, what's the best practice here? Am I missing something?

You shouldn't worry too much about the potential manipulation risks mentioned. If you're using dual-boot, that other OS has full access anyway, which comes with its own risks. If /boot works better for you, go with it unless there’s a specific restriction you’re facing with /efi.
