Windows,Linux,Unix are the important operating systems as you
know,worlds 90%of computers runs on windows,windows is very user
friendly OS when compared to linux,but windows can’t able to
completely fulfill the basic needs of an web servers,but linux can do
that.
So let us know how to install Windows and Linux on a same
machine,Linux got hundreds of distros for example Ubuntu,Linux
Mint,Fedora,Red hat,puppy linux etc etc,in this tutorial i’ll explain
you how to dual boot Fedora with Windows 7
ok lets get into the job.
ok lets get into the job.
Stage 1:Installing Windows
Well installing windows is not a tough job,i’ll explain this in
brief,first turn on your computer and insert your windows installation
disk,hit appropriate key on the keyboard to get into the boot menu,in my
PC boot menu opens with f12 button.Press it,the number of available
booting media will be listed there select DVD/CD there,then follow the
instructions on screen,this is how you can install windows.
OK now you installed the windows on your PC lets head to the next stage.
OK now you installed the windows on your PC lets head to the next stage.
Stage 2:Partitioning the Hard drive for Linux
now this is somewhat tricky but its easy,open disk management on your windows OS(windows 7 in my case)
you will see your hard drive and few details about it,now we need to
partition this drive in-order to install Linux(fedora in my case),now
click on the drive then right click and select shrink(follow screenshot)
Usually any linux Distros doesn’t need disk space more than 6GB,i’m
shrinking the drive by 6GB,its up to you how much space you leave for
the second OS(linux) but maintain minimum of 5 GB for it.
After shrinking you will see an unallocated disk space,
After shrinking you will see an unallocated disk space,
Now just leave that space as it is and restart your Computer,I’ll tell you why we left that in next stage.
Stage 3:Installing Linux
This is the final stage “installing the
linux”,Yes its time for linux now,Pop in your linux installation disk
into the tray, as usual go to boot menu and select DVD/CD.
Live CD boots up ,you can use linux now but its restricted as it is now running from the CD live!!,now the time for installing linux,click on install icon on the desktop
Live CD boots up ,you can use linux now but its restricted as it is now running from the CD live!!,now the time for installing linux,click on install icon on the desktop
then just complete all the customization options and advance forward,Now
Where it asks storage media type just select fixed storage device click
next,then in the next screen the installer will ask you for
installation type Just select Use free space,and then click write
changes to the disk
Bit confused isn’t it???where does that free space came from????Yes your
guess is correct!!! that free space is nothing but the unallocated
space on the hard disk,Linux installer will format that space and
installs linux in it.
Yes you successfully installed linux(fedora
here) on your PC now simply restart your computer,If everything is
correct then you must see an boot loader like this at the startup
Here if you select “other” option then it will boot windows OS
More about Linux installation
well this method is not mandatory for dual booting,but its an easiest
one,Ubuntu,Linux Mint have the ability to install inside the windows
with a single click,but for alongside install this is the simplest and
quickest way.
