I already downloaded an ISO file using another video, and created a boot stick. I am watching to know on dual booting installation. From all videos I have watched, YOUR ANSWERS TO EVERY QUESTION POSTED ON COMMENTS ARE VERY WELL EXPLAINED! Something different from many other videos. When I start dual boot installation, I will watch again. (First installation completed, was a full installation wiping windows 10 in my 2008 DELL laptop. I need to go for dual boot in my ASUS 2015 model). Thank you
@MrBlob-mc2sw yeah you'd think it'd be simple but my windows never gets the dual boot screen and just loads windows. Only way to boot into Linux is by hitting f12 on startup. That's why I said you didn't show the one part I needed to see. And everytime I reboot it adds another linux entry when I hit f12 at startup. And it doesn't stop doing it. I had like 30 something linux boot entry's I could select to load linux. And I know it's not supposed to work like this. I've had secureboot on and off and it does the same thing.
*Very well explained how to install Linux with dual Windows boot, my question is whether it can be done with ventoy and I mean to have Windows and Linux on a stick , without going after you with two sticks*
Thanks for your feedback. Yes, it is possible to create a bootable USB stick with both Linux Mint and Windows on it. To do this, you'll need a sufficiently large USB stick (at least 16GB is recommended) Prepare the USB stick: Format the USB stick to be FAT32 or NTFS file system so it can be recognized by both Windows and Linux. Create partitions: Use a partitioning tool to create two partitions on the USB stick. One partition will be for Linux Mint and the other for Windows. Install Linux Mint: Use a Linux Mint ISO file to install Linux Mint on one of the partitions. You can use tools like Rufus (Windows) or balenaEtcher (cross-platform) to create a bootable Linux Mint USB. Install Windows: Use a Windows ISO file to install Windows on the other partition. You can use the Windows Media Creation Tool (for Windows) or Rufus to create a bootable Windows USB. Though keep in mind that not all systems may support booting from a USB stick with multiple operating systems, so it's essential to check your computer's BIOS/UEFI settings and compatibility. Hope it will help!
got this to successfully work a lot of changing in bios and making partition was the only thing you missed other than that if those were included woulda been 💯
Although I did get an error about the lack of an EFI partition and skipped past it, I think this tutorial seems to have worked out well as long as I am using legacy boot unlike the other ones I tried so thank you very much!
I really appreciate people sharing knowledge for free, but honestly I don't see the point of a step by step tutorial if you have "I've already prepared this ahead of time, I hope you did it before like I did offscreen" in the middle of the tutorial. Personally I'm having trouble with the partitions, since the website says you need to do like 3 or 4 partitions and they lost me there, lol. anyhow, thank a ton for the tutorial and keep up the good work! :)
Hi, actually if you're going to be installing Linux on the same computer as the one you've flashed the USB drive, there's no need to unplug it. I have done it because I've flashed it on a different PC and was installing Linux on a laptop.
Thanks for your comment! Unfortunately, macOS is designed to run only on Apple hardware. In theory, you might be able to set up a dual-boot configuration with macOS (potentially using a Hackintosh setup) and Windows 11 on the same PC, but it can be quite challenging due to hardware compatibility issues. And there are a lots of other interesting and nice looking OS besides macOS so why would one want to use it on a PC? And to try to install Win11 on an Apple PC or laptop with the macOs, I don't have of this hardware to test it on and I'm sure there are going to be lots of issues on the way to do it. So in my opinion the juice isn't worth the squeeze.
Hey, whenever I boot my computer with the linux mint usb thing and get to the boot screen, whenever I click "boot from usb" it just gives me this error message: import_mok_state() failed: not found I dont know how to fix this, I originally booted this computer up fine with it, but forgot to perminantly install it. This is actually so annoying I just had to run the installation thing and this wouldve all not beeen needed. I have been trying for 2 hours now, I really need this awnser, thanks :)
Hi, the option to "Install alongside Windows 10" may not appear during the installation of Linux Mint 22 for several reasons. Windows 10's Fast Startup feature can prevent Linux Mint's installer from detecting the Windows partition. Solution: Boot into Windows. Open the Control Panel → Power Options → Choose what the power buttons do. Click Change settings that are currently unavailable. Uncheck Turn on fast startup (recommended), then save the changes. If Windows 10 is installed in UEFI mode, but the Linux Mint installation media is booted in Legacy/CSM mode, the installer may not detect Windows. Solution: Ensure the Linux Mint USB is booted in UEFI mode. Look for "UEFI: [USB device]" in the boot menu. Secure Boot or RAID configurations can interfere with Linux Mint's ability to detect Windows. Solution: Disable Secure Boot in the BIOS settings. If you're using RAID, switch to AHCI mode (after ensuring compatibility). Hope this will help!
Hi, To utilize a swap partition during the installation process: Locate the partition where you want to create the swap space. If you haven't created a partition specifically for swap, you can allocate a portion of an existing partition or create a new one. Select the desired partition and choose the option to edit or modify it. In the partition editor, change the partition's file system type to "linux-swap". This can usually be done by selecting the partition and changing its type or format. Once you've set the partition type to "linux-swap", save the changes and exit the partition editor. Back in the installation screen, make sure the "Use as" or "Mount point" option for the swap partition is set to "swap". Proceed with the remaining installation steps, such as selecting your time zone, creating a username/password, and configuring any additional settings. Finally, when you reach the last step of the installation process, confirm the changes and allow Linux Mint to complete the installation. By following these steps, you will allocate and configure a swap partition during the Linux Mint installation, which will be utilized for virtual memory management on your system. Hope this helps!
How do we do it the other way around. From linux to windows. I have linux mint but need to bring windows back & keep both. Do you have another video? I already downloaded windows into USB. I just need to install it from USB. Thanks!
Hi, I do have a video in Linux playlist how to create a dual boot Windows 10 alongside Linux Mint. But it is highly recommended to install Windows first and then Linux as the other way around. Installing Windows first and then Linux (or any other operating system) is often recommended due to the way Windows handles bootloader configurations and partitions. Windows tends to overwrite the bootloader in the Master Boot Record (MBR) or EFI System Partition (ESP) during installation. If you install Linux first and then Windows, Windows may overwrite the existing bootloader (such as GRUB) with its own, which can make it difficult to boot into Linux. Installing Windows first ensures that it sets up the bootloader correctly to recognize other operating systems like Linux. Hope it will help! Let me know how it goes.
Hi ,I completed the steps flashed linux mint to usb pendrive But after that you showed connect pendrive to laptod and press power button .Then a menu appeared to select linux mint But in my Lenovo thinkpad x280 i connected pendrive then i pressed power button the system running as windows without giving that menu to select linux mint Please help me through this problem
Hi, you need to do the following steps: Start or restart your ThinkPad X280. As the laptop is booting up, press the F1 key repeatedly to enter the BIOS Setup Utility. Note that you need to press the key before the Windows logo appears. Once you are in the BIOS Setup Utility, navigate using the arrow keys on your keyboard. Look for the "Boot" or "Startup" tab using the arrow keys, and press Enter to access the boot options. In the boot options, you should see a list of available devices for booting. Look for the USB device you want to boot from, such as "USB HDD" or "USB Flash Drive." Highlight the USB device using the arrow keys and press Enter. If necessary, you can change the boot order to prioritize the USB device over the internal hard drive. Look for the "Boot Order" or "Boot Priority" option and rearrange the boot devices accordingly. Save your changes by selecting the "Save and Exit" option, usually with the F10 key. Confirm your selection if prompted. After following these steps, your Lenovo ThinkPad X280 should restart and boot from the USB device you selected. Remember to have a bootable USB drive connected to your laptop for this process to work. Alternately, you can try a quick key or shortcut to access the boot menu directly without entering the BIOS Setup Utility. On the ThinkPad X280, you can try the following steps: Start or restart your ThinkPad X280. As the laptop is booting up, press the F12 key repeatedly. This key is often used to access the boot menu on Lenovo ThinkPad laptops. Keep pressing F12 until you see the boot menu appear on the screen. Once you access the boot menu, you can use the arrow keys to navigate and select the USB device you want to boot from. Press Enter to confirm your selection and proceed with booting from the USB stick. Note that the specific key to access the boot menu may vary depending on the ThinkPad model or the BIOS version installed on your X280. If pressing F12 doesn't work, you can try other common keys such as F8, F10, or F9. Hope this will help! Let me know how it goes!
Hi, installing Windows 11 alongside Linux Mint is quite similar to installing Windows 10 alongside Linux Mint, but there are a few potential differences and considerations to keep in mind: Windows 11 requires Secure Boot to be enabled for installation. Linux Mint can work with Secure Boot, but you may need to sign or disable Secure Boot during its installation for compatibility, depending on the version and settings. Windows 11 typically requires GPT partitioning if installed in UEFI mode. Make sure your disk is using the appropriate partitioning scheme for compatibility with both OSes. Most of the steps are similar.
I am running it on a dell optiplex 3010 am not too sure and can run windows anynore so i wanted to use linux but because my parents are more used to windows i thought of dual booting
Hi, after the installation, you can use a bootloader to manage the boot process and allow you to choose between Linux Mint and Windows 10 at startup. Most Linux distributions use the GRUB (GRand Unified Bootloader) as the default bootloader. GRUB should detect both Linux Mint and Windows 10 during the installation. It will present you with a menu at boot time, allowing you to choose the operating system you want to boot. If for some reason GRUB does not detect Windows, you might need to update GRUB. Open a terminal and run: sudo update-grub You may need to access your computer's BIOS/UEFI settings to ensure that the hard drive with the Linux Mint installation (which includes GRUB) is set as the primary boot device. This step can vary depending on your computer's manufacturer. Restart your computer and check if the GRUB menu appears, allowing you to choose between Linux Mint and Windows 10. Hope this will help!
Hi, good question, just go to the start menu in Linux bottom left corner, choose restart, once computer will restart you need to choose Windows during the boot. Hope this helps!
Hello, and thank you for an easy video that is very self explanatory. The only thing I can't figure out is the partition for Linux Mint. You mentioned that you had already created the partition; how do I do that? I know just enough about this stuff to get me into trouble. 🙂
Hi Shaun, thanks for your feedback. If you already have a Windows installed, you can prepare a partition with a Disk Management program on Windows. Press Win+X shortcut, go to the Disk Management. Choose the Disk you want to resize and right click on it, choose Shrink Volume, enter the size you need and press Shrink. I would recommend about 50GB or 100GB. That's it. Then you can continue to follow the rest of the steps. Hope this will help!
Hi, it usually means that Windows bootloader has taken over, or the GRUB configuration needs to be adjusted. Here's how you can fix this: If GRUB isn't showing up at all, you might need to press a key (such as Esc, Shift, or F12, depending on your system) right after your BIOS/UEFI screen to manually bring up the GRUB menu or to select Linux Mint from the boot device options. You might need to change the boot order in the BIOS/UEFI settings to make sure the system boots into GRUB first, rather than directly into Windows Boot Manager. To do this: Restart the system and enter the BIOS/UEFI settings (typically by pressing F2, Del, Esc, or another key during boot). Look for the Boot Order or Boot Priority settings. Move GRUB (Linux Mint) or Ubuntu (GRUB may show as Ubuntu) to the top of the list above Windows Boot Manager. Save and exit the BIOS/UEFI. Windows Fast Startup can sometimes interfere with the proper boot sequence in dual-boot systems: To disable it: Boot into Windows. Open Control Panel > Power Options. Click Choose what the power buttons do. Click Change settings that are currently unavailable. Uncheck the Turn on fast startup (recommended) option. Save changes and reboot. Hope this helps!
