Should I choose Aquarius or Aquarius Linux in the boot menu?

I installed Q4OS alongside Windows 11, and in the boot menu it’s giving me the option to choose to boot ‘Q4OS Aquarius’ or ‘Q4OS Aquarius Linux’. Which of these options should I choose? A photo of the menu should be attached.

Hi Tux.

The good news is that both options will work & you won't hurt the system.

The Standard Boot Option: This is usually the shorter, cleaner name, like 'Q4OS Aquarius'.

This should work ---  If not try the other listing.

Then perhaps you may wish to install grub-customizer -

Run this command ----- sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

Once all updates are set -- then run the following command ------- sudo apt install grub-customizer

We are aware there is a glitch in the installer, however we consider it minor. The "Q4OS Aquarius Linux" is the proper entry, but both will work. Don't delete the "Q4OS Aquarius" entry, as Windows tends to remove the second then. We are working on a fix, but again, it cannot harm your system anyhow.
