Where to put bootloader when dual-booting with two seperate disks?

Hello @schasch Sure, you can do that. Normally the UEFI searches for specific efi partitions on all local drives and there is no limit. You can have one efi partition for each OS, if you like. Beside that, it ensures, that no OS change or overwrite efi files of other OS’s if each OS has its own efi partition. Well, if you are greedy, you can use the efi partition of windows.

How i can dual boot another linux distro with manajro

If you installed the other distro after Manjaro, then that distro’s GRUB is the one you’re currently using. However, it has to be Manjaro’s GRUB that needs to be in control. Issue the following commands (from within Manjaro)… sudo grub-install --recheck --modules="part_gpt part_dos" sudo update-grub

Do linux distros like manjaro and mint play well with dual-booting?

They can be multiboot friendly if you know what you are doing. Many distros have difficulty detecting Manjaro, but Manjaro can detect most other distros, so use Manjaros grub for dual booting. Alternatively let every distro have their own grub and use rEFInd to switch between them at boot.
