Choosing a Linux Distro for Dual Boot with Windows

Asked By TechWhizKid42 On

I've been using Linux for over a year and a half, hopping between Debian, Mint, Pop!_OS, and Fedora. Currently, I mainly use my laptop for university and my DevOps internship where we frequently work with RHEL-based distributions like Alma, Rocky, CentOS 7, Oracle, and Ubuntu Server. Recently, I reinstalled Windows on my home PC, which has decent specs, and while I still enjoy using Windows, I'm looking to set up a dual boot. I'm a bit stuck on which Linux distribution to choose for this setup. I know it's a personal preference, but I'd appreciate any advice or suggestions you may have!

You might want to check out the distro selection wiki. It has a lot of helpful info! And remember, it's always good to take regular backups and test things out in a virtual machine before diving in.

Have you thought about just going with Linux only? It could simplify things and give you a fresh start!

Honestly, Ultramarine is a solid choice, or you could just stick with regular Fedora for something that's easy to manage.

If you're looking for something reliable that just works, I'd recommend sticking with Fedora for its modern repositories. But if you're interested in a bit of a challenge, you could try NixOS – it offers some unique features like rollbacks and a declarative system configuration.
