How to replace one Linux with another from a dual boot

General Linux Question

Here is my suggestion, stop killing yourself when you obviously want to try out a few of the millions of different LINUX distros out there. Not to mention, who can blame you? Here is what you do…

  1. Install a solid LINUX distro as your main OS like Ubuntu. It has solid support, lots of applications, and lots of how-to videos available for you. Plus, LINUX will use a lot less resources than Windows.
  2. Next install VirtualBox software so that you can create and run Virtual Machines.
  3. Now install the Windows version of your choice into a virtual machine.
  4. Next install any number of LINUX distros into a VM to try out as you please without risk, without hassle, with minimal data loss, a lot less time spent setting up and/or removing a VM.
