  1. Dual Booting while upgrading Windows and installing Ubuntu


    I have Windows 10 Home/Pro ready to upgrade from Windows 8.1. I also want to dual boot into Ubuntu and will need to install that as well. I have also just installed an SSD and have 2TB hard drive space.


    With all that being said, what is the best procedure for dual booting into these 2 OS? Should I do one before the other?

    :)

    Dual Booting while upgrading Windows and installing Ubuntu

    Issues upgrading Windows 8.1 to 10 on a dual boot laptop with Ubuntu

    Hello George,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    Yes, dual boot of Ubuntu and Windows is very sensitive in order of things.

    Windows OS should be installed first, because its boot loader is very particular and the installer tends to overwrite the entire hard drive.

    GRUB is the boot manager installed in Ubuntu by default. GRUB is an open source boot manager that install the main parts of the boot loaders inside Ubuntu. This means Ubuntu is independent and avoids any need for writing to other
    operating systems

    So the best way to resolve this issue as rightly suggested in the initial post i.e.:
    remove the partition with Ubuntu and make Windows a primary, reinstall Ubuntu and Grub.

    We regret the inconvenience caused on the applications that you will have to reload. Suggest you to back up of any important data present in Ubuntu before reinstalling it.


    Get back to us if you require more clarity on the issue.
