Thinking About Dual-Booting with Linux—Advice Needed!

Asked By GamerGal42 On

I've been curious about Linux for a while and recently set up Linux Mint on an old laptop. Now, I'm eager to try Linux on my main PC, but I do play a few games that aren't compatible with Linux. I'm considering a dual-boot setup, but I have little experience with it and I'm honestly a bit nervous about the process. Any advice?

I just installed Fedora 42 on a laptop that had Windows 11 pre-installed. I booted into Windows, shrunk the partition to create some free space, and then I booted from a Fedora live USB. The installer did a great job creating partitions and setting up dual booting without any issues—even with BitLocker and Secure Boot on! Now I'm thinking of removing the Windows partition to give Fedora more space. So, I say go for it!

Sounds fun! I have an SSD full and a 4TB drive, should I buy a second SSD?
