  1. How to install windows 10 alongside Linux mint without removing my current Linux distro.


    So, I want to install Windows 10 on my PC that currently runs Linux Mint but I don't want to remove Linux mint or have to reinstall Linux mint. Anything I can do? All of the websites I find are just installing Windows 10 over Linux and just reinstalling Linux. I don't want to do that. Storage is not a problem so if I have to install a bunch of software to do so that's fine. If I need to install extra software on my USB drive that's also fine as it has 128 GB on it.

    :)

    Remove Linux and install Win 10

    I have a ThinkPenquin Linux laptop that runs Mint 17.1 only and has a solid state hard-drive.

    I want to totally remove Linux Mint and install Windows 10 from USB flash drive.

    Not sure of the steps to do this. Help!
