Wanting to install linux on a partioned ssd to dual boot with win10?

[Baz]

Win10 on NVMe and Linux on sata SSD possible? Yes, ...but like this?

1: Install windows on nvme, when it’s done shut it down from the cmd (it just hibernates by default) 2: Install linux (Mint is good to starter option) on the ssd & make the ssd the first boot option from the bios/uefi. Replug all the drives if you unplugged any (shouldn’t even be necessary, but better to be safe I guess). Boot to linux and upda…

If you go with debian or ubuntu the same commad applies, for fedora (assuming an efi install, legacy is kinda outdated anyway) you can update grub with

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
