I'm transitioning from Windows to Bazzite Linux and want to get familiar with dual booting, but my laptop's SSD doesn't have enough space for that. I'm considering cloning my Linux setup onto a micro SD card so I can boot from it whenever I like. Is this feasible? Are there any specific limitations I should be aware of?

Just a heads up, many laptops can't boot from their internal SD card readers since they might connect via PCIe, which isn't bootable. But an external SD card reader that connects through USB should work just fine.
Absolutely, it could work! Just check the Application Performance Class ratings for your SD card. Some are better suited for booting operating systems due to their I/O performance.
For sure! Just grab a USB to micro SD adapter. Plug it in, and you should be able to boot from the USB. It's an easy workaround if your laptop's internal reader isn't compatible.
Yes, you can boot from a micro SD card, but it may not be the best experience. Depending on the speed of the SD card, it could be slower than using a USB flash drive.
