for an often much better Linux experience (hardware makers usually test against Windows and that's it, causing huge problems with UEFI compliance and power management in Linux - many quirks are known and worked around, but some need manual intervention). As such, you should also make sure you have the latest BIOS/UEFI flashed on your system. Peripheral compatibility isn't much of a problem with dual-booting Linux BIOS/UEFI settings are MUCH MORE LIKELY to cause headaches.
some models allow it only once you've set a BIOS admin password, or other niceties). So you'd need to add a section on how to disable SecureBoot in the article, especially on laptops where this can be VERY finicky (e.g. Rufus gives you the possibility of using an MBR-compatible scheme (it chain-loads a GPT with a MBR sector, making it work in both types of machines).īut GPT is necessary for SecureBoot to work, right? Thing is, only Ubuntu and Red Hat are compatible with Secure Boot, and Rufus strips those away (if you want SecureBoot to work you need to clone the ISO onto the media instead). Using GPT for the install media makes the boot disk incompatible with older computers that don't use UEFI, and even more modern systems that have a buggy boot process. This article is incomplete on a very sensitive matter, and that's too bad because it is otherwise very nice. On an old Threadripper 1920X machine with sufficient memory I have even done 2 Windows machines simultaneously, both with dedicated GPUs, plus a third one for the Linux host.Īnyway, I have this question to the knowledgable audience here - what is the proper way to license Windows 10 for use in a VM? Do the cheap OEM keys that are being advertised so often by the tech-tubers work for a VM installation? With GPU passthrough I can have close to native performance. Generally, I prefer to go in the other direction - run Windows in VM hosted on a Linux machine.
But these are more for command-line jockeys like myself. Cygwin more so, because it has proper terminal window, where select is copy and middle click is paste.
With WSL2 you are bound to have Hyper-V activated which precludes using any other hypervisor.Īlso, I find both Cygwin and WSL1 very usefull. Installation is also far easier.įrankly, I prefer to install Linux manually in a hypervisor of my choosing, whichi is never Hyper-V. Andrep74 said:I’m surprised you didn’t at least mention WSL2, which works really well under Windows 10 and 11.
