Then with either VBOX or VMplayer use the Linux iso as the install media and just run the "Create Virtual Machine" wizard on either of those platforms. Simply first install Virtual BOX (Oracle) VMplayer(VMWare) or HYPER-V (enable from Windows - must have Windows PRO or above for this - it is possible on HOME but fiddly !!!) as your "Virtualisation platform" - I'd probably avoid HYPER-V to start with especially if you aren't used to running Virtual machines. Personally if you just want to have practice at installing / using Linux systems I'd start by using them in a Virtual Machine -that way you won't hose up any existing Windows system - and if the process goes wrong just delete and start again. The whole process should be simple - then at boot you will be prompted to boot into Windows or Linux. When you install grub most Linux distros will ask if you want grub to detect other OS's such as Windows. #grub-install /dev/sda where /dev/sda is the target disk -NOT the partition !!!!!!) To add Windows install os-prober then update bootloader and grub again # grub-install -target=x86_64-efi -efi-directory=/boot/EFI -bootloader-id=GRUB On UEFI systems install it into /boot/EFI (which should have the boot flags set to boot,esp when creating the partition). You should install the Windows OS FIRST as Windows install will kill the Linux boot manager ThijsL202įor MBR systems - on the Linux system the bootloader should be installed into /boot.
Typically in a dual boot (triple/quadruple etc) system Grub will start up first and then select the OS you want from the menu - or you can have a default OS to boot - see the doc.
