oh i think its better to install on another ssd
Yeah, that's what I've been told.
I'll check if my lappy has another SSD slot, because if not, then... dual booting with a broken Windows installation is my only option.
I had the same experience using a single hard drive. Two, ime, works flawlessly. Though i haven't added windows boot to grub so i need to use BIOS to load windows, which is easy enough i haven't bothered with grub. Your experience may vary based on BIOS.
That might explain why I had problems.
some linux users try passing their gpu through a windows vm and make the vm look like a real pc
If I didn't straight up delete my Windows installation (which contains important files), I would have to use MORE space just to run Windows on a VM in the Linux environment.
If only I can just run the actual contents of my Windows partition on a VM, that'd be great.
alr
This is quite literally my only barrier to actually using Linux. If I didn't have it, I would immediately take the chance to run away from Windows once and for all.
