I just came browsing, Really nice tutorial for whoever wants to dual boot on their PCs. Clear and to the point ! I, on the other hand decided to stick with Windows on my personal computer, and Linux on the work computer :D
Abhishek, I have followed your Linux Installation instruction videos and it is Amazing its all good. You tell us the Truth, there are some videos which gives all bogus stuff but you are an Amazing guy, thank you Abhishek keep it up
Those who are getting grub install error, do one thing aditionally create a efi file of 100mb while creating portion in root directory. Everything works fine for my hp laptop. It's been 2 days since I tried to install ubuntu while windows 11 on dual boot mode with ssd and hdd side by side. This guy's video worked but I had to create a efi file before creating root. It works fine for me.
@@Itsfoss Hey, I've followed every step that's been done here, but after removing the installation medium and downloading ubuntu, I still am not able to see the GRUB menu and the laptop opens up the windows OS. How do I fix that?
Nice tutorial. As we know everyone is upgrading to SSD, can you please make video on how to move dual booted (windows 10 + ubuntu 18/20 ) from larger HDD to smaller SSD in the best way keeping the Data Partitions on HDD and moving only system partitions(GPT configuration) I'm currently adding smaller SSD. Any suggestions here?
Hello bro , i have a question , i have windows 10 in ssd and and i want to install ubuntu in hdd , i maked the partition of 35gb in hdd and i want to install it in , since my windows 10 is in ssd and also its boot loader also , what and how many partations (/ , /home, and swap , boot loader) i have to make in my 35gb hdd partation in order to install ubuntu and dual boot both os ??? Please help me , i am really confused and really need help 😢❤😢❤❤
You said that the swap file is directly under the root partition in newer Ubuntu versions, so we don't need to separately create a swap file. Does it stand true for Linux mint also?
Yes you can, just go to the partitions window and free up some more space, then, select where you have Ubuntu and just expand the storage with the freed-up space
After spending 6 hours now installation is successfull👍🏻.. I take long time because after restarting USB option is not shown but after spending few hours in BIOS setting now I will get success.... Thank you so much for this Video🙏🏻 .... Sir please a make a separate Video to troubleshoot this problem 🙏🏻
I’ve a 128gb SSD (20gb free only) and 1TB HDD built in my laptop. Can I go with the 2nd option of installing Linux completely on HDD ? Linux mint is light OS so the OS itself will run smooth right ? If good, then can you please tell me the guide to do so ?
Thanks for the amazing tutorial! Just and question.. what will happen incase I update windows, or some BIOS update from my windows dell provider. Will it remain as it is?
Usually, yes. In some rare cases, Windows becomes default again. In that case, you can go into the BIOS settings and boot into Linux and then update grub. But that doesn't happen often.
No option is coming as use device in the menu... also tried from boot menu and ther also bootable usb is not shown.. it may be related to secure booting settings , how can i correct it ?
Bro I'm facing an issue. Ubuntu is installed successfully in my Pc, and is asking for a restart. But when I restarted my pc, it reboots and a kernel appears, and in the end it says "fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed". Any suggestions?
Thank you for this video. I have purchased a new laptop which has a 250 GB SSD (disk 1) and a 1TB HDD (disk 0). The laptop is preinstalled with Windows 10 in the SSD. I want to Install Ubuntu (I prefer 18.04 LTS) in the HDD (disk 0). My plan is to make two ntfs partitions (say D and E drive) of 500 GB for windows OS in HDD and make an unallocated space of 500 GB in the HDD where I will install the Ubuntu (root and home in the HDD). Actually I do not want to disturb the C drive (or SSD). Will there be any issue after installing Ubuntu on the HDD? I am a bit worried whether, after finishing installation, I will be able to see the black/purple grub screen with the option to boot into Ubuntu and Windows. Could you please answer/explain me . Best regards.

Heyya I encountered two issues. 1. Upon restarting my pc, the "use a device" option was not available. However clicking on anything will make my pc restart with ubuntu loading screen 2. My HDD is MBR and it has more than 4 partitions when I checked it in disk management. So that's why when I was about to install ubuntu, I can't find the option "free space" ---> can you help me on what should I do about this? I am stucked here for almost a week now.

Not sure of your question. So, you have two computers now. One has Windows and one has Ubuntu. You want Ubuntu on your new system but with the old data that you had on your old computer. Am I right?
Bro can you help me ? I did the same but for Kali Linux. Currently I have Kali on my disk D and Windows on C. To acces Kali I need to go in BIOS And change the mod to Legacy. Is there a way to not go through that and have a menu just like you where you can select Window or Kali at each Computer start ?

I have one clerification- What is the use/necessity of selecting drives on both disks (HDD & SDD) in "device for boot loader installation"? It looks like we are consuming some space on both disks for a single ubuntu installation. What will happen if You are selecting drive from only one disk on which windows is not installed (1TB disk in this case)? Please reply. .........Thank you...
Nice tutorial. I have a question. I have SSD in that i have installed a Ubuntu 20.04 and HDD in that I have installed WINDOWS os. I am using HP laptop with 12 GB RAM. So I would like know How can I manage dual boot like when needed I can switch OS for my use? Mainly I am using Ubuntu but sometime needed windows. SSD size is 240 GB, So I don't want to install windows in that. Thanks
Hmm... that's too small a space for both Windows and Ubuntu to function properly. I mean Windows itself will take 25-30 GB. You may try creating an additional /boot partition for Linux with 6-8 GB of space on SSD. Keep / and home on HDD. I haven't tried it myself but this should give you some boost while booting Linux.
I have installed ubuntu as shown in this video. To remove the ubuntu, we can follow regular process and later delete the partition? If possible can you provived quick video on that?
i dont get a GRUB option after powering on my laptop and it keeps windows as default have to click F9 for multiple times and boot it manually howdo i change this to optional(grub option ) screen
I'm confused after I installed in empty new SSD, the PC restarts but it immediately opens Windows without showing grub dual boot selection. Do you know why?
Probably the ESP partition was not updated during Ubuntu installation or perhaps it created another ESP partition. To figure out, check the disk partitions. See if there are more than one ESP partitions. Also, go to BIOS settings and see if you can see Ubuntu/Linux boot option. Try booting it and see if the GRUB only shows Ubuntu or it also shows Windows.
Hi I am new to this dual booting thing, Some other tutorial I read stated that I need to create a /boot partition as well but your video doesn't create a /boot partition so now I am a bit confused, Can you explain why you don't create a boot partition? Again sorry if this is a silly question.
He doesn't create a boot partition because he uses the EFI partition windows already has in sda1. This replaces windows boot manager by linux's grub. IN THEORY, there's nothing wrong with this. But, in some cases, windows may update and mess up linux grub. This is easily solved using the terminal, but if you are new to this kind of things, ir may give you a scare. To avoid those problems, it is advised to create a boot partition (or an EFI partition) in sdb and installing the bootloader there. Doing so would prevent windows from messing up linux grub.
In my case, I've already dual boot on a single SSD, then I want to upgrade my laptop by adding HDD, now how can I configure that. (SSD for is, and HDD for storing data is common sense)
You want the HDD to be for data storage only and use it between the two operating systems? You can go to Windows and add the HDD as NTFS partition. Now, you should be able to access this NTFS partition from Linux as well. You'll have to do special effort for auto mounting it though.
I may sound super dumb in this section but here it goes: I am buying a 1TB SSD and my laptop already has 1 tb HDD. What i want is, to install linux on SSD completely, but also to be able to install some of windows programs on it. Do you think this is possible and should I do it?
You mean you want SSD to be shared by both Linux and Windows, right? Yes, that's totally possible and since you have 1 TB SSD, that's the suggested way. Start installing Ubuntu. If it gives the option to install Ubuntu alongside WIndows choose it and see if it is trying to install on SSD or not. If not, abort the installation, go to the WIndows and make some free space on the SSD where you'll be installing Linux. Start the installation again, this time, go for 'something else' option. Use the free space you had created and use it to mount as root (or you could partition it for root and home). Do make sure that SSD has ESP partition. This should make things work for you.

I have a laptop of 256gb ssd and 1tb hdd,so i am thinking to follow this video to install linux,but i have a doubt regarding the part between 7:30 &7:40,where you switch the device for boot intsallation from 128gb to 1tb disk,but i am told that we have to keep device for boot installation unchanged to the disk where windows os is installed or else it will create another efi on hdd that will Slow your boot ,Make debugging hard later if something goes wrong and we would have to go into boot menu to boot ubuntu,please guide me regarding device for boot installation
I've successfully installed ubuntu completely on my SSD but the problem is that it's not showing the HDD hence can't access the files on the HDD. Please Help!!!!
Your HDD is untouched and on Windows? In the file manager, look for Other Locations tab in the left sidebar. Click on it and it should show the option to mount the HDD.
Hey! I have a 1TB Hard Disk which has Windows preinstalled in it. Also, I have a 500 GB SSD in my laptop and I want to install Ubuntu on that. In that case I won't have to select the some other method option while installing ubuntu right?
Windows is installed on the HDD and SSD is not used at all? That's weird. The entire point of having SSD is to utililize the speed of SSD and use HDD for storing data.

Start the installation again, this time, go for 'something else' option. Use the free space you had created and use it to mount as root (or you could partition it for root and home).
Do make sure that SSD has ESP partition.
This should make things work for you.

Hey, I have the new model of predator. I am facing two problems first is I'm getting option to turn off RST. Second is that my hard drive free space isn't visible while selection of storage for Ubuntu installation. What yo do?
You'll have to turn off RST. For the second part, please make sure that you have selected the second drive, it uses GPT partition and your USB is created in GPT partitioning as well.

Windows 11 SSD And Windows 10 HDD Dual Boot
Why would you want that? Just curious.
I've successfully installed ubuntu completely on my SSD but the problem is that it's not showing the HDD hence can't access the files on the HDD. Please Help!!!!
Your HDD is untouched and on Windows? In the file manager, look for Other Locations tab in the left sidebar. Click on it and it should show the option to mount the HDD.

Hey! I have a 1TB Hard Disk which has Windows preinstalled in it. Also, I have a 500 GB SSD in my laptop and I want to install Ubuntu on that. In that case I won't have to select the some other method option while installing ubuntu right?
Windows is installed on the HDD and SSD is not used at all? That's weird. The entire point of having SSD is to utililize the speed of SSD and use HDD for storing data.
