    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):

    1. Install Windows 11 first (with FlyOOBE bypass)
    2. Shrink Windows partition to create space for Linux
    3. Install Linux distribution
    4. 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

    Slutsats

    Dual booting provides the best of both worlds—use Linux for development or privacy, Windows 11 for compatibility. Both work well on bypassed hardware.
