Dual booting is pretty easy these days. The linux distribution installers help to resize partitions etc. The main inconvenience is accessing stuff off linux from windows. I used dropbox to do the sync in the past. Now I'm mainly on kubuntu and rarely use an old windows machine for some tasks.
- Gud 8mo agoI've been dual booting for 25 years.It was never difficult. And sharing between the operating systems is also not difficult, you just keep your files on a NAS :-)
- userbinator 8mo agoWhen I multibooted Linux, DOS, Windows, and MacOS (Hackintosh) a long time ago, I had a huge FAT32 partition for this purpose as all the OSes could read and write it. These days, ExFAT should also work for bigger files.
- kristianp 8mo agoYou beat me, I've only been dual booting for about 12 years. It's easier than it used to be if you want to preserve your existing NTFS partition and resize it. Linux tools couldn't do that until some point in the last x years.
