Dual Boot Linux and Windows 11 on Unsupported Hardware
Set up dual boot between Linux and Windows 11 on unsupported PCs. Complete guide for GRUB configuration, partition management, and troubleshooting.
Dual booting Linux alongside Windows 11 on unsupported hardware provides flexibility and a fallback option. This guide covers installation and configuration.
How Do I Set Up Dual Boot with Linux and Bypassed Windows 11?
Install Windows 11 first using FlyOOBE bypass, then install Linux. Linux will automatically detect Windows and configure GRUB bootloader to offer both operating systems at startup.
Dual boot setup requires careful partition planning.
**Installation Order** (Recommended):
- Install Windows 11 first (with FlyOOBE bypass)
- Shrink Windows partition to create space for Linux
- Install Linux distribution
- GRUB automatically detects Windows
**Partition Layout Example** (500GB drive):
| Partition | Size | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| EFI System | 500MB | Both OS bootloaders |
| Windows C: | 200GB | Windows 11 |
| Linux root | 100GB | Linux installation |
| Linux home | 150GB | Linux user files |
| Swap | 16GB | Linux virtual memory |
| Shared NTFS | ~33GB | Files accessible by both |
Заключение
Dual booting provides the best of both worlds—use Linux for development or privacy, Windows 11 for compatibility. Both work well on bypassed hardware.
