    Thanks for the detailed explanation, makes a lot of sense! I guess what I did was set up a UEFI entry that specifies the location of the Linux kernel without any intermediate bootloader. Pretty sure I didn’t set the fallback, so I’m guessing that’s still owned by windows.

      Yes, I think you did. In that case, I don’t think Linux will claim the fallback loader entry. Windows doesn’t always copy its files there, so the file may not even exist. If that’s the case, you’ll only ever encounter the fallback paths on an installer/recovery disk.
