Hi. My computers all crashed due to hardware errors. They were quite old anyway. So, after considerable consideration, I am buying a new tower that comes with a 1 Tb disk and WIN 11 installed.
Obviously, I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t a Fedora aficionado. Therefore I wonder whether it is possible to grub the disk so that it has Fedora as well as WIN 11. If possible, how can I find the steps to achieve this goal? I surmise from other writers that it is indeed possible, but I don’t know how to start.
Fedora’s installer can setup the dual boot for you. It will be a lot easier if Windows is installed first. Fedora’s installer will detect Windows and setup the grub boot menu for it.
Is that available on the live USB Installer approach? Can you give any more details about how Fedora will set up grub for me? I know less about this than I thoght.
Yes. Fedora will detect Windows in the installer and will setup dual boot by default. You can also, optionally , delete all your windows partitions and just run Fedora, straight from the installer as well. I generally do the latter when I’m installing Fedora since I have up windows a very long time ago.
If you do this you can take a back up of your whole windows 11 if ever i never needed for my case but you may need just make a back up to a drive and install fedora in whole disk and you may consider full disk encryption that win does not offer.
