installing multiple distros on one drive?
im currently dual booting endevouros with windows, and i have a lot of free/unpartitioned space on my drive. can i install another linux distro alongside endevour and windows? i have a separate home partition as well. do i only keep one linux/grub boot partition? im not too scared of nuking everything but id obv rather not. thanks!
You're viewing a single thread.
Gparted should help you manage your partitions. Be very careful to pick the right partition to format. Also, Windows is known to sometimes mess up dualboots, it thinks it is the only OS.
thanks. if i never update windows (even if it tries to force me to), is it possible for it to break it ?
In my experience this only happens when (re)installing Windows, not updating. Can be easily fixed via live USB.
cool! thanks
I would never ever recommend not updating windows, but if it is maybe just a dedicated gaming OS and you don't use it for internet browsing or anything else, you might be able to get away with it.
i never use it. i only keep it around on the off chance i need to run some proprietry garbage for school
You might consider moving the installation into a VM, instead. From what it sounds like, this would be more convenient for you.
Under those conditions probably not.
