So, many rabbit holes later and I have achieved something I didn't set out to do in the first place.
Whilst mucking about with partitions and image files and what not, I decided it would be useful to have a Ubuntu live USB stick. Made one and booted it up on my Surface Pro 3. I liked it.
Me: "I wonder if I can install a Linux on the Micro Sd card slot that this SP3 has?"
99% of the internet and Microsoft: "You can't boot from the Micro SD card slot."
Me: "Hold my beer."
I now have GRUB on the MBR of the SP3, allowing me to boot to Windows 10, full Ubuntu 18 desktop or a very lightweight Debian 9.
The linux distros are on the MicroSD card, Windows 10 was unaffected by the whole thing.
Noice.
I suppose I should wander over to the Linux thread now.
