- How to Dual Boot Linux Mint 20 & Windows 10 with No steps skipped.
In this video, we'll take a look at how to dual boot Windows 10 & Linux Mint 20, using MBR partitioning scheme and Legacy BIOS mode. I am doing this on a SEAGATE 500GB HDD. This procedure is for both Laptops & Desktops, and you can follow along for older versions of Mint as well. This video assumes that you already have installed Windows 10, and that you've backed up your data.

Thank you very much for your excellent, clear and easy tutorial. Thanks to you i succeeded to turn an old and slow windows Laptop into a fast Linux.
Really cool video, everything was in detail, no chances of mistake
I agree man
fantastic, it was very useful especially for the disk partitioning step
0:51 I already liked this video XD
You have a nice voice :)
Thanks, mate. This really helped me a lot.
Thank you so much. I was neck deep in the mess that I created till I see your video. 😘
Thank you so much Sir!!! This helped a lot

Awesome tutorial!
Great job thank you very much.. keep going...
Great Tutorial👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
This helped me a lot.
Very helpful... Thank you😊😊😊
thanks so much very helpful video
You used 4 partitions while others have done this with 2 or 3 partitions. If I understand correctly Linux has its own boot partition and the windows boot partition was not modified by the Linux installer (others boot directly to Grub). The root and home are different partitions, separating the operating system from the user data (which I do on my Windows installations).
This partitioning scheme insures that if there is a problem with the Linux installer or the Grub boot loader Windows will still boot and run normally. In the end we still boot to the Windows boot loader to choose our OS (like duel booting 2 versions of Windows). This looks like the safest way to add Linux without potentially damaging the Windows installation. It is more familiar and less intimidating to a Windows user trying to do their first Linux install.
So should we follow this method or designate the boot partition to the windows one?
@@fictionaddiction4706 this method is the best
This video was awsome thanks you
Bruh
U ARE A LEGEND ❤️
Thank you very much!!!.
Thank you. Btw, I didn't have to do the EasyBCD processes 15:09 , it detected boot menus automatically. 🙂
wow that was so useful thank you! linux is awesome
The best vedio that i ever seen As a guid
Thanks a lot Sir
Thanks bro..Ubuntu installation on MBR partition will it be the same process ?
This video is very helpful. But, how to make extra partition as EFI System Partition? Is it Primary or Logical? Beginning or End of the space? Thanks
At 4:04 the shrink volume should be unallocated or 'free space' will also work?
Thank you.
So i have 2 Questions.
1. Can we dual boot chrome os on MBR legacy bios?
2.can we trible boot on MBR legacy bios devices?
I always get an error
The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk ;
[Errno 5] Input/output error
This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive .....
You are soo good
Can i follow this video now as well,because i want to install windows and grub in two seprate partition
very useful video, I installed as instructed, but it failed when I restarted and tried to enter Linux Mint 20, it says "No floppy Cannot find ANG0 in all drives...". How should I correct it??
Will you make a version of this video for UEFI PCs?
Thank you
I had to use legacy mode in the bios as well as disabling secure boot.
what is partition home used for ???
Did your hard drive change from Basic to Dynamic disk after you made those partitions for Mint?
@TeamUpHubGames that's not the answer I was looking for, but thanks
Sorry, I got lost in 9:17, the dev/sda is the second(empty) harddrive to be install with Linux or the first hardrive already has Windows inside ?
My last attempt I was unable to activate GRUB but I try again. I dont know what I did this time, all is well until 15:36, the Linux Entry is unaccessible. I got a bit angry and accidently deleted the Windows boot. I sweat so much trying to recover the Windows boot by button smashing in the BCD program. Suddenly I now have 3 Windows boot. When I restart the pc, now I can choose which OS to start including Linux. Overall, it did work, thank you very much !!
Thanks bro
Thnx brother
Hi demon how are you? I would like to install Linux in dualboot with Windows 10 on the Sony vaio 500 gb it is a pc with legacy that is mbr but being that it is a large hard disk I do not know how many gb to give has Windows and I do not know how much it has Linux would you recommend me? Then another information regarding the manual partitioning can you tell me the exact commands to put? For mbr then for when it concerns the programs As soon as installed I uninstall them with the programs without leaving a trace then I right click on the disk and I clean and I do the cleaning then in temp prefetch then I have a memory of 4gb I saw that in the video you put a partitioning in ram manually to create the ram to be dedicated has linux me having 4gb what number should I put? thank you very much and good day carlo
I have a decade old dell studio 1555 , not sure legacy or uefi bios, will this work?
I'm trying to dual boot mint with windows 10, followed the steps mentioned and created the partitions as instructed. After clicking install now I'm getting a pop up "No efi system partition was found.... Proceed at your own risk" please help.
@@demonkillerr That's correct, changed my boot priority to legacy first (it was UEFI prior) and was seamlessly able to install mint. Thank you for this installation video and quick response :)
I have a dell laptop. does this proccess still work? cause I found it easier than other tutorials
For the /sda5 part when I create a new partition it doesn’t make that /sda5 directory. Instead it makes something else since I’m using my main ssd to do it. The name of the partition created is something called /nvme with a whole bunch of random text and numbers. Is that something I should worry about?
Nope. It is doing the right thing.
why did you choose /home direction it is important?
Bro it is working but after 2-3 days it is showing that boot partition is full, what should I do, it working fine btw but still can u suggest something
Great video ,, bro can you make a Chrome OS installation ISO for common viewers like me .. it will be very thankful for us or can provide such link where we can download and install ChromeOS on our PC . thanks in advance
@@demonkillerr , Please do so , you can easily make this
Sir I have issue windows 10 is not in boot menu and boots straight to mint
I failed to notice that before installing Linux mint but windows was never in the boot menu how to fix this
bro I'm not getting option of /swap which option should I choose if there is no /swap in partition making window
(Trying To Install Linux Mint Xfce)
heyyyy bro lol watching same videos
@@roasted_boy6213 😆😆
will be shoing us how to do with uefi?
It cant detect the boot partition after I assigned it, it even didn't show in the drop-down menu
Same here, how to solve that issue
@@demonkillerr what you mean?
I have the same problem
It boots me gpt and uefi does the install place still boot?
bro i am getting stuck on the codec download page..it never advances from there..any help
When I try to install Linux mint in my shrinked drive it shows unstable
What should I do now?
Can I use this videos same partitioning trick to dual boot Windows 10 and Zorin OS?
@@demonkillerr ok thanks
I get a error saying TURN OFF RST while installing mint. Can you please help
When I try to install it says my /boot partitions are too small not sure why
Another tip:
If you don't want to install BCD on your own and want the default linux grub screen, don't make the boot partition. Let the installation continue without any boot partition. It will automatically install it in default EFI partition.
So do I make an EFI partition if none is available?
@@fictionaddiction4706 Only create the "/" root partition for keeping your os files, swap if you want a swap partition. Boot partition is not necessary. Select the root partition you created and press next.
I'm only able to see my pendrive in partition table whole installing Linux Mint
if I want to delete linux forever what I have to do?
Unfortunately there was no 'swap area' option available in the drop-down menu. The installation failed.
are you on uefi or legacy? I just released a newer version of this video
man i am having issues i cant install wireless wifi drivers and i cant boot up into linux it need 3 4 tries
Bro I have a question.Why did create 2x100gb partitions if you used only free space 100gb? I have only 320 gb on my HDD so I don't afford doing that.
D drive for storing data in windows
@@demonkillerr I thought something else when I wrote this comment.Thanks bro for this video 👍👍
can we use the entire disk than shrinking from the disk?
if you use entire disk then dual booting won't be possible as Windows (or any other operating system you have) needs its space for files and the os itself
@@ryn1192 yeah but what if you have two hard drives for instance I have 2 separate 1TB hard drives will it be possible then?
grub installation failed... I've got this error...what fo i fo
how to install deepin os
is 50 gb big enough for linux
After shutdown and restart it not showing the boot option is directly entering into the windows
Thanks bro your instant reply got you a new subscriber 👍
i got scared when he said open you favorite browser and opened edge XD
In installation type:
This computer currently has no detect an operating system.
There is no option to install linux mint alongside windows 10.
What should i do?
@@demonkillerr thanks, I've fixed it by changing the MBR to GPT
I've installed windows+Ubuntu on my pc.. But it showing error.. No such partition.. After that ive tried linux mint Bootable Usb.. It showing all my drives containing data.... How can I install Windows without lossing any data??
@@demonkillerr yes, I want to install Windows... But partitions are not showing up during windows installation.
@@demonkillerr how to delete grub
After I boot into Linux Mint and try to install Linux, and when I go into the sda setup, it shows unusable instead of free space, how can I fix this?
@@demonkillerr yes I did and it said unallocated (50gb)
So how can I fix it?
Its same happening to me also
Ok, I fixed this problem, and I have installed Linux mint in my PC, but it doesn't have wifi.. how can I fix this?
@@demonkillerr I have fixed that also, now my Linux Mint says not enough space in /boot partition, how can I increase the space of the boot partition?
Bro I followed this steps and dual booted my Computer which is in Windows 10 with Linux Mint. Now I have to delete Linux Mint and install Ubuntu. What is the safe way to uninstall please tell.
Just delete the partitions in windows disk management and undo steps done in easy bcd. There is an option to rebuild BCD. Click on it.
After that you can install ubuntu in the same way as shown
@@demonkillerr Thank you! It worked!!
Easybcd is not opening in my laptop so I am not able to do the last step
@@demonkillerr how to be on legacy?
Now a grub command line is appearing and am unable to open mint and windows both
@@demonkillerr can u link one such video plz so that this process goes smoothly
@@demonkillerr still grub cl is appearing
Bro in my condition it didn't detect Windows 10 and now I'm unable to load windows! What to do? Reply asap
Are you booting into linux? And are you sure if you have a legacy/mbr system?
@@demonkillerr i don't know
I'm unable to finish mint installation ...and with that , windows is not loading....it's showing file partition error and continues rebooting when I remove the usb
@@AB-bu1pk are you in a bootloop?
makes me think you have a efi/gpt setup. The setup in this video is for legacy mbr only
Bro see, I tried to install mint ...during installation it showed swap memory error...i cancelled it ....shut it down...then when I started laptop again , it isn't able to load windows..says partition error....please guide me step by step I'm scared af
Getting error
Indians never lie.
Man, thought this was my solution until Easy BCD said my PC was using EFI.....
@@demonkillerr Please do this.
