Tried Multboot Bodhi Linux on Laptop but Failed

I tried to  multiboot Bhodhi Linux parallel with other distributions but failed. Then I tried Prism Linux ruined everything and I did not have Bootable Hard Disk.
Bodhi Linux is UBUNTU based and it has the beautiful Moksha desktop.
On first mount I prepared the Hard Disk with EFI, 20GB /root and 1GB boot and the figure of 8 still botheringme I gave SWAP partition 8888MB twicethe 4G RAM.
After initial WiFi configuration INSTALL fonished in less than 10 minutes but UPDATES as usual took a long time.
I have decided to ditch MX Linux based AV Linux Moksha.
For the 4th time it failed to boot after installation.
It violated EFI size by half.
Allocated 512 instead of 1GB required.
Boot  file was only 1MB.
Only 2 partitions
ESP
EXT4 the entire hard disk.
No SWAP a fundamental Linux Mistake.
I could not rezise the /root partition using Gparted while still remaining with the Live Session.
Nobody can I did not give enough opportunity.
Next is Installing Debian.
I have to go back to FULL install of DEBIAN Testing needing 32GB.
Debian is happy with 4GB SWAP.
DEBIAN takes 3338MB for the system.


I would  be giving up watching real UBUNTU SAGA unfolding from a sideline.
Good Bye to Bodhi Linux and UBUNTU.
