I have two ssd, the first is NVMe and the second one is ssd sata. windows is installed on the NVMe, and I want to install linux mint on the sata ssd. will there a problem between windows and linux boot?
i need to help me to install it and there's a problem between grub boot and windows boot when install it alonside and select the ssd sataNO ,no problem, when you are installing just make sure you select install alongside and then choose the SSD as the target drive and not the Nvme,
is that necessary and how can i disable fastboot and quick startif you have windows, check the windows settings and disable fast boot/quick start
Yes, with windows quick start the computer never shuts complete down but goes into a form of deep hibernation, so when you switch on, instead of a full fresh boot you hget a hybrid boot forcing windows to start.if your machine was made for windows 8.1,10 or 11 it may be in the bios power settings, if not it will be somewhere in the windows settingsis that necessary a
When open the terminal and write this sudo update-grub and should i choose try ubuntu or install ubuntuswitch the computer off [I am asuming its not a server] switch on and open the short boot menu [usually F12 but can vary] you should see an entry for Mint [depending on which build it may say Ubuntu or Debian] open it and let it boot in,
when you have your mint screen, open a terminal and run the following
sudo update-grub,
When update grub finished then can i install linux mint and what about the partitoningwhen you have booted whatever distro you are using just try in the terminal
sudo update-grub, [then enter
Your password [then enter]
and if it runs leave it till it finishes,
No i'll install it tomorrow i need ur help about the partitioning should i select install alongside the windows and select the ssd sata or choose erase disk and install linux mintI thought you said you had already installed it
So when i gonna install linux mint i'll choose alongside windows or choose erase disk and install linux mint and what's the perfect choiceIf you are using Mint LMDE or mint 22 [and many others] you can let the installer do the partitioning for you,
you may be asked if you wish to install third party drivers or additional codecs, check the box for yes and enter
when nearly finished you will be asked if you wish to install grub on accept and enter

How Do I Install Linux (A General Guide) • Linux Tips
Today, I will try to answer one of the most common questions asked by the newcomer to Linux; “How do I install Linux”linux-tips.us
I'm just curious, do you know what you are getting yourself into? Have you tried using a live usb version of Mint? Have you tried looking for opensource alternatives to the programs/apps you use on Windows on a daily bases?So when i gonna install linux mint i'll choose alongside windows or choose erase disk and install linux mint and what's the perfect choice
Can i use alongside windows but on different diskthat's your decision, if you need to use windows for specific reason on occasions, then alongside, if you don't need windows then use whole disk, both work fine , Besides this is Linux so its your choice on how you set up your machine
I'll not erase windows i have second ssd sata i wanna to install linux mint on itI'm just curious, do you know what you are getting yourself into? Have you tried using a live usb version of Mint? Have you tried looking for opensource alternatives to the programs/apps you use on Windows on a daily bases?
If not id suggest doing more homework before you erase Windows. Also I suggest making a bootable usb of Windows before you make any decisions.
yes just make sure you choose the correct target drive at partition stageCan i use alongside windows but on different disk
