Re: [orca-list] Dualbooting Linux and Windows



Hey Devin,

You are absolutely correct. Do a booting is much easier on UEFI systems. I do it, and switching between operating systems is very easy. My motherboard actually has a boot option for the Linux partition. Therefore, it is very easy once the system starts up, to press F 12 and down arrow once if I want windows. Since most motherboards don’t have this though, you would simply have to count the number of times you have to press  the down-arrow key to go between Linux and windows. In most cases, the bottom option gets you into your bios, so getting yourself there an up arrowing once usually does the trick. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Hi all. I have no idea why I keep doing this to myself, but my SSD (NVME) has enough space to where I think I could easily dualboot Windows and Linux. It's not running BIOS, it either has EFI or UEFI, and from what I've read, dualbooting is far easier on that. So, does anyone dualboot here? If so, how easy is it to switch between the operating systems? I'm planning on starting with Debian, since its accessibility stuff is just, already preconfigured. Maybe the stability of Debian will mean a lot less crashes than Fedora 35.
