Equivalent single disk setup possible for dual boot environment?

My desktop setup is two drives, one running Win10 (Bitlocker), the other running Linux (full disk encryption).

I just hit F12 on startup and select which disk I want to boot from. It works well.

I’m currently trying to set up a laptop but it only has space for one drive. I can create partitions and dual boot but I lose the ability for full disk encryption on both operating systems (Bitlocker freaks out as soon as I set up encryption on Linux).

Anybody know how to set up my existing dual boot environment on a single disk?

You will not be able to do so based on how the core technologies work. You would need something like an SD card or something to secure one of the boot partitions away from the other.
