Linux installation media setup
You can easily set up a Linux boot disk using tools like GParted or Rufus, which simplify the process even for beginners.
In short, you’ll likely need a separate storage device or you can set up a partition on your existing one (using tools like EaseUS Partition Manager). Once created, it appears as a new drive in Windows Explorer. Alternatively, you can use a USB stick and a tool such as Rufus to convert your drive into a bootable format. After that, adjust your BIOS settings to prioritize the Linux drive for startup. You can also run a virtual machine (like VMware Player or Orca VM Virtual Box) to install your Linux distribution inside Windows without needing a dedicated boot drive.
