Windows 10 on SSD and Ubuntu on HDD?

I would like to install Ubuntu on my Windows 10 laptop. I have W10 on my SSD. On my HDD I have games like this. Since I still have 350gb free I want to use 150gb for ubuntu. How should I do this in Windows with the partitions? Will have that as a dual-boot then. Lg

Simply install on HDD, and change the bootbedium before starting in the BIOS!

Download Ubuntu and burn the ISO file to a DVD or install it on a stick that you have previously made bootable (eg with rufus). Then restart your PC and boot from this medium… This takes a bit… Then you click on… Install… You will then get all partitions displayed on your PC and also an installation selection. There you can choose how and where you want to install Ubuntu. You can't go wrong. Ubuntu also installs the boot loader with where you can then select at each reboot which operating system you want to boot. Other questions… Happy…

But he has to change every time to the bios and only… Much too complicated…

Ok, thanks for the first time!

Would previously use gparted or windows to provide the empty partition. With the ubuntu installation one can't change the partitions and one must select an empty one.

If he constantly changes, yes, if only abuntu is not, because then he can simply leave the SSD, for example

That's the good thing about a dual-boot… Man can switch OS quickly and easily if he needs it.

So now I have in Windows HDD reduced by 150GB for Ubuntu. Now what do I have to select in Ubuntu if I want to install ubuntu on the 150GB free space

How should I do this in Windows with the partitions?

You do not have to force this to happen in Windows, because Windows can't read or even create file systems other than its own anyway. So let's do it directly during the installation routine of Linux.

I have W10 on my SSD. On my HDD I have games like this. Since I still have 350gb free I want to use 150gb for ubuntu.

Then you have to select the correct drive in the installation setup of the distribution (I suspect / dev / sdb) and let it shrink accordingly.

You probably do not need 150gb, but storage is cheap.

A root partition (/) with 20gb is sufficient in the home area completely. How big then / home must be depends only on which files you want to save there. The number of installed programs is insignificant for / home.

Linux Hase

In fact, every Linux distribution should be able to shrink a Windows partition.
Also this "popular" Ubuntu (for me that's the last place).

Should Ubuntu really fail this feature, poor Ubuntu.
But I think more poor @ raven3k

Nonsense! When you turn on the boot menu appears and you can choose.
