#dualbooting — Public Fediverse posts

I really want to erase the last bit of #windows in my home, the Windows 10 partition in my #dualbooting desktop computer, but there are still two games I can't get to work in #linux and those are my completely legally downloaded copies of #thesims and #thesims2. I can buy the anniversary editions on Steam but that would involve giving EA more money than it deserves. Does running them on a separate laptop in #windowsxp count as sticking it to the man? #did #digitalindependenceday

🤖🔧 Ah, the perpetual dream of dual-booting #Android and Linux—because why settle for one broken system when you can have two? This masterclass in unnecessary #complexity is perfect for those who think "troubleshooting" is a fun weekend activity. 🚀💥

Pues fue como la seda y puse el Dual Boot en marcha (Debian 13 + Win 11), instalando Win primero.

El comando más importante es, durante la instalación de Win, cuando llegues a si tu PC es para uso privado o de una organización:

- Mayus + F10 (abrirá cmd)
- Teclear: start ms-cxh:localonly

Con esto te saltas la creación de la cuenta de Microsoft online y creas un usuario local en el ordenador.

Mano de santo.

You know what would be really great for safe #DualBooting?

A half-height 3.5" bay module with room for 3 SATA or NVME SSDs and a pushbutton mode switch in the front.

In mode 1, disk 1 would be read/write, disk 2 would be read-only, and disk 3 would be read/write
In mode 2, disk 1 would be read-only (or possibly read/write), but time-delayed to receive power 1 minute after poweron, and disk 2 and 3 would be read/write

Disk 1 would be your windows boot disk, disk 2 would be your Linux boot disk, and disk 3 would be either NTFS or exFAT data.

This might also be doable as an external enclosure, but I'm not sure how OSes feel about installing a bootloader on what appears to be a USB mass storage device. Maybe eSATA, but I don't think I've ever seen an actual eSATA port in the wild.

Updated status on the great #Linux install: After battling with some video glitches, I #distrohopped from #Kubuntu to #KDENeon to #LinuxMint. Still can't run #Overwatch on this machine, but there could just be too many variables. #Motherboard? #CPU? #GPU? #Drivers? Could be any of them, or a combination.

I'm currently #dualbooting. That will do for now until I can get Overwatch running.

... i should dual boot rooted android on my laptop for no useful reason...
do x64 versions of android even exist anymore?

Thinking about installing Linux Mint for dual-booting purposes. However, I might need at least 500 GB to make room for Linux and Libre software. Any thoughts, recommendations and suggestions before installing?

I installed #Fedora (with #Gnome and #Sway) on my new #Thinkpad ! (Alongside Wind*ws, which I do not use at all, but will keep around on a small partition, just in case). It will replace my antique #MacBookPro, running #Manjaro #i3, as my daily workhorse. Made an #apple pie 🥧 to celebrate. :fedora:

I'll be in a need to employ full disk encryption on a a laptop with an SSD + HDD storage.

The tricky part is - it'll come with Windows 10 pre-installed, and I'll need to dual-boot it with Manjaro.

Anybody knows if stuff like that has been done before?
