The best installation tutorial for dual boot 👏. I would suggest to issue: pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring, before the archinstall to avoid the “could not strap in package” error.
I don't know what's different about their partition method. Some of those people teach really fast. I go slow, try not to take for granted the viewer understands what I'm talking about, I over explain, and repeat myself. I try to not leave out little important details. There's always a risk of losing data when partitioning a disk with stuff on it. I'm glad it worked for you. Thanks for the positive feedback.
Thank you for this video. I've seen on other video, that since dual booting with windows11, diskpart has been used to delete partition that can't be deleted when using disk management.
I bought a new SSD for my notebook. If I want to leave Windows 11 on the main SSD (to prevent Windows Update from ruining Linux) and install Arch Linux on an unallocated partition on this new SSD, is there anything else I have to do? Or is it the same thing you taught? Will Grub/Systemd-boot be able to recognize both systems on different SSDs?
I think it will work, but I would have to test it before knowing for sure. I made a video where I added a second drive to an existing Arch install. It might be helpful to watch it even though it’s different than your situation. Dual booting is not the best option. The safest way is to have two computers, one for Windows and another for Linux. Add 2nd encrypted drive & auto unlock ruclips.net/video/ZtZcYR4UWjk/видео.html I realize that video is a different scenario, but it might give you more insight. Good luck!
Great tutorial... But I am at a stand still. Using systemd-boot during install following your instructions, my system only boots into Windows directly. I chrooted into the Arch install and reinstalled system-boot but same result... I'm now looking for other ways before just using Grub and manually add Windows....
The parts before archinstall get hard I have never dual booted arch but I am going to today one question do I need to make a partition or does it auto make one
You have to manually make a partition like I did in the video. Note, there is a possibility a Windows update could disable your ability to log into Arch. This happened to me a while after making the video. I was still able to log into Windows. If you want to keep Windows, it’s probably better to use VM Ware or Virtual Box to install Arch as a virtual machine in Windows or have an Arch install with Windows as a virtual machine. That is the safest way. I should probably make a video to update this one. Good luck.
Nvm I got it all fine I just had to watch the vid but now when I’m in my bios secure boot is on and is grayed out my bios is rog im debating if I should delete the keys but I have some sketchy programs on the computer what should I do?
nvm its fine but in the video it shows a 100mb EFI partition yet on my disk management on c: it has boot page file crash dump basic data partition all in one partition but on disk 2 there is a EFI system partition which is 100mb and a 450mb recovery partition

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the positive feedback and for the keyring advice. I appreciate it.
I'm glad i followed this tutorial and not the ones with over 200K views, as following those would lead to losing all ur precious data.

Another awesome video and thank you. Yes, sometimes some of us have to still keep windows due to work related stuff like myself.
Thanks again for the positive feedback and for supporting my channel. I appreciate it.

My bad... 2 minutes after I wrote this it occurred to me I didn't check my bios setting. Windows boot manager was at the top of the list.... All set!
Thanks for the positive feedback.
Glad it worked out for you!

@@linuxmench2118 thanks but just to clarify shrink means take away storage? I have done so many os reinstalls so it’s not a big issue
