When you install Linux if you have 2 drives make sure that Linux grub (bootloader) is installed on the drive wher Linux resides, not on the one where Windows and it's bootloader is, in case you...

• Installing dual boot

  Otherwise, what you'll have to do is image a USB drive with a partition management software or distro (e.g. GParted Live), boot from it, and then resize your partition from there. This does carry more risk of data loss than the dual SSD method, but it's more universal (you haven't mentioned if this is a laptop with more than one removable storage option or not, for instance), and it's unlikely to cause any harm....

• Can you install Chrome OS Flex as a Dual boot?

  I have a suggestion, follow the previously advised installation process to install CrOS Flex on a separate drive, then reconnect and enable the Windows disk through the boot menu, once back there you can install a GRUB manager under Windows, like Grun2Win, it's easy to install and set up, once you are all done, the final result will be easier to switch from one OS to the next, instead of every time going through...

• best Distro for Noob

  When I started out, I used red hat, Suse linux, and then finally I jumped to Ubuntu, when they killed gnome and rolled out their new GUI later, I switched to Ubuntu Mate, with xfce alternatively installed. And then later came MINT. Which is based on ubuntu anyway. Source: 5 months ago

• Windows 10 support doesn't end in 2025 after all, if you pay up

  I'm partial to Linux Mint myself, but at this point, if you're not running some Windows specific software, there's less and less reason to use it every year. Source: 5 months ago

• Introduction

  My first Linux distro was PopOS and It was a refreshing experience. It was really easy to install, use, and game on. I distro hopped a few times to see what other linux flavors are like. These are the ones that I remember trying Zorin OS and Linux Mint. These ones looked mostly like windows and it was easy to use. At work, I gained most of my linux knowledge from docker and configuring / administrating RHEL... - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago
