My plan is to buy an NVMe today, install linux as a dual boot, but use linux as a daily driver, to see if it meets my needs before committing to it.
My main needs are gaming, local AI (stable diffusion and oobabooga), and browser stuff.
I have experience with Mint (recently) and Ubuntu (long ago). Any problems with my plan? Will my OS choice meet my needs?
Thanks!
I did a similar thing when starting out with KDE neon, but I found having windows annoying as it would keep breaking Linux’s bootloader (grub) randomly because Microsoft is an asshole.
On my laptop, I ended up removing the windows disk altogether, and it’s a much nicer experience.
Dual boot might be necessary at first, but if you can just boot Linux and use a windows vm on it, that would probably be a better idea.
Can windows also break grub on gpt or only legacy mbr?
