Running two operating systems on a school laptop is possible.
Running two operating systems on a school laptop is possible.
I believe my school IT department might be upset with me. With some assistance, I bypassed my PC, gained admin access, installed Steam and CS-Go and Ultrasurf, then tried running Linux there too. I transferred 12GB of the SSD to Linux and started it up. For returning it at year’s end, I’m considering formatting it first. Now I’m torn—should I hackintosh or not?
It makes sense to create an image or duplicate because school systems usually include specific software. They might also recognize your activity due to their monitoring tools.
I’m safe in these good books, so they won’t worry about me. Also, I don’t have Linux because it disconnects from the school network since I don’t know the Wi-Fi password. Some students have already tried to crack it, but it failed. They re-image the computers every year when we return them for the holidays, which helps avoid software problems.
Monitoring isn't continuous 24/7. They don't actually watch your system all the time. What happens is they won't care until you create more tasks for them. If something breaks and you get sent to the help desk, you've forced them to do more work. Once they're involved, they'll take notice. Also, avoid installing Macintosh—its setup will erase other partitions on the drive. Back up your Windows and Linux partitions, then reinstall and restore them afterward, everything should work fine.
I’ll fix it myself. If I need help, it doesn’t bother me too much. I tried installing 10 on it but lost everything, including my OS, and had to bring it to them. They didn’t care much. Besides that, I lost my work, and they thought it was funny.
I'm also a pleasant person, though at some point in the process there will be what's called an MBA. These individuals aren't kind—they'd sacrifice their families to boost profits or cut costs by just a tiny fraction. These are the ones who turn good intentions into harmful actions.
