MODERATORS
Can you keep a dual boot while still accessing files from either?
Yes, my Fedora install is happy to pull files from NTFS with no adjustments, and there must be some Windows software that can read the LVM of Fedora.
That's assuming they are either not encrypted or you know the encryption keys.
What does that protect against other than physical attacks?
I have it switched on but I never had a second thought about it.
Files on your Windows disks can be accessed from Linux if you dual-boot.
