Need input on dual booting Windows and Linux from people who are dual booting Windows and Linux

I'm planning on adding a dual-booting section to my guide on how to install Linux and I need some input from people who are dual booting Windows and Linux:

  • How did you allocate the partition for Linux? Did you use Disk Management from Windows or did you allocate the partition as part of the installation process?

  • How do you share data between the two partitions? Do you create a third partition that both OS partitions have access to? Do you use external drives/flash drives? Or do you just have no need to share data between the two drives?

    1. Yes I used disk management first.
    2. No I did not share data, i mainly just used the linux install for streaming video on a tv.

    I consider myself a linux rookie.
