  • In this video, I show you how to install Ubuntu on a dual-boot with Windows.
    This is an updated tutorial for the new Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, which released on April 25, 2024. What's changed in this version is the installer. The process for creating a bootable USB is the same. If you already know how to do that, you can skip to 4:04.
    Prerequisites:
    1. USB drive (at least 8 GB)
    Links:
    Ubuntu ISO: ubuntu.com/download/desktop
    Balena Etcher: etcher.balena.io/
    This video is part of a series entitled "A Guide to Switching to Linux | Ubuntu Edition". The purpose of this series is to make it easier for a Windows user to migrate to Linux (or in the case of this guide, Ubuntu specifically) by going over what Ubuntu is, how to install it, how to use it, and what to expect in your journey of switching from Windows to Linux, and kind of get you "jumpstarted" on Ubuntu.

    Good video! I did exactly the same. But do you know how to change the name Windows boot manager to Windows10, for example?

      Looks like they removed the portable version. You're just gonna have to get the installed version, which works the exact same way.
      Yes Rufus would also work if you prefer that, but I find Etcher easier to use (especially for a beginner).

    Can an 8gb pendrive work for the installation media and is the program that you used Etcher safe? Also nice to the point guide 👍

    A gamer here, but also a university student. Got some experience with Linux gaming, and it is just great! Elden Ring, Lethal Company, Star Wars KOTOR... (even somehow better that Windus, actually) Also, Linux can handle all of my university work easily (Packet Tracer, Postgre, Code), aaand pretty good for my part time job with Audacity, and Krita alongside with XPPen driver for my hobby.
    Could see no point of using a Microsoft product...
    BUT.
    An MSI Katana laptop, which kinda is supposed to work on 100% with MSI Center utility, which is for Windows.
    Fan control, clock rate, user scenario...
    So I use dual-boot Windows+Linux, MSI Center kinda slays with user scenarios... So actually, I spend most of my time on Windows installation...
    Linux is a Mint one, but it is kinda an old version, and I'd rather update or even switch to another distro. I like Ubuntu, the new LTS looks like a pleasant system to me.
    And I'm actually having progressively less love for windowed OS...
    YET, I'M AFRAID
    That MSI Center, as a BIOS-husbando utility,
    Can affect the performance of my Linux installation...
    Like,
    If I set a Super-Battery or Silent user scenario,
    and then go to Linux,
    from there I'd have trouble launching something resource-requiring, like that one Elden Ring...
    OR, if Max Performance is set on MSI Center,
    I have to listen to the fans most of the time while using Linux... which is... kinda uncomfortable when drawing.
    Not confirmed to be 100% true, could be just my paranoia, But I could take time to bootup Windows, switch user scenario, and then go back to Linux...
    So, actually, I don't think I really have encountered that type of trouble... just think of its possibility.. not 100% sure of any..
    HOWEVER...
    I really want to get rid of Windows. It's okay if I had never used MSI Center, and went on a default laptop power...
    BUT
    I worry that by erasing windows, I can leave some hardware configurations be, and remain unreachable,
    since the actual BIOS of my laptop
    doesn't have that many options to configure, as MSI Center has..
    Again, could be just my paranoia, and things don't work this way.
    Yet, I'm afraid I can regret it because of user-scenario-that-possibly-affects-linux-performance...
    I wouldn't like being stuck in Silent mode... or a "Relentless Fans" mode...
    Should I not worry about it, and go full Linux, or should I keep Windows somewhere on my SSD...
    Anyways, a great video!
    Somehow, Mint already has an option to "Install alongside Windows", which is kinda fun..

      In your case, you might want to keep Windows on your laptop just for the MSI Center.
      However, Ubuntu does have a switch between "Power Saver," "Balanced," and "High Performance" modes, built-in, so maybe give that a try if you're thinking of switching to Ubuntu.

    The option for dual boot does not show up. Only erase disk and Manual install.

      Make sure you’re booting your installation medium in the right boot mode. If you’re booting in Legacy/CSM, try switching to UEFI, and vice-versa.
      You may need to go into your BIOS settings to do this.

      I think Ubuntu detects other Linux distributions as well, so it should work.

      Oh! Not sure, haven’t tested it with Nobara. You may need to do manual partitioning.
