Thanks for following the guide. Hope this helps you in some way 
Brief: This detailed tutorial shows you how to dual boot Fedora Linux with Windows 10, step-by-step, accompanied by proper screenshots.
Dual booting Linux and Windows is one of the popular ways to enjoy the full potential of the two operating systems. You have both Linux and Windows installed on the same system and you can choose which one to use after starting your system.
If you have a system with Windows installed already, you’ll learn how to install Fedora alongside Windows in this tutorial.
Installing Fedora alongside Windows
The tutorial has been performed on a system with Windows already installed, GPT partitioning and UEFI boot. It should be applicable to other systems with MBR partitioning and legacy BIOS system as well, but I cannot confirm that.
Note: If your Windows system uses BitLocker encryption, it will be a good idea to disable it first before you go on installing Fedora.
Requirements
Here’s what you’ll need to follow this tutorial:
- A system preinstalled with Windows
- Good speed internet connection
- A USB key (pen drive) with at least 4 GB in size
- Optional: External USB disk for making back up of your existing data on Windows.
- Optional: Windows recovery or bootable disk (if you encounter any major boot issues, you can fix with it).
Let’s see the steps.
Step 1: Make a backup of data on your Windows system [optional]
Backup is always a good idea. You will be dealing with the disk partitions. In the rare unfortunate case, if you make a mistake and delete the wrong partition, you’ll lose your data.
The simplest way would to be to copy the data in Documents, Videos, Music, Pictures and other folders to an external USB disk. You can use an external HDD (slower but cheaper) or SSD (faster but expensive) and copy the important files and folders on it.
[lasso box=”B08GTXVG9P” link_id=”20925″ ref=”sandisk-500gb-extreme-portable-ssd-up-to-1050mb-s-usb-c-usb-3-2-gen-2-external-solid-state-drive-sdssde61-500g-g25″ id=”101803″]
[lasso box=”B08JKFY8FH” link_id=”20926″ ref=”toshiba-canvio-advance-1tb-portable-external-hard-drive-usb-3-0-black-hdtca10xk3aa” id=”101806″]
Step 2: Make some free space for Fedora installation
You need to create a partition where you’ll be installing Fedora. If you just have C drive, shrink it. If you have D, E or F drive, see if you can move their data to some other partition and delete or shrink one of them. Anything above 40 GB should be comfortable enough space for Fedora.
In the Windows menu, search for ‘disk partitions’ and go to ‘Create and format hard disk partitions’.
In the Disk Management tool, right-click on the drive which you want to partition and select shrink volume.
If you have just one partition like this, you need to make some free space out of it for Linux. If you have several partitions of considerable size, use any of them except C drive because it may erase the data.
Step 3: Making a live USB of Fedora in Windows
Now, this can be done in different ways. You can download the ISO and use Etcher or Rufus or some other tool to write the ISO image to the USB disk.
However, Fedora provides a dedicated tool for downloading and making live USB. I am going to use that in this tutorial. The Fedora team put some effort in creating this tool, so why not use it.
But first, plug in the USB key. Now, go to the download page of Fedora:
You’ll see the option to download the Fedora Media Writer tool for Windows.
It will download an exe file. Once downloaded, go to your downloads folder and double-click the FedoraMediaWriter exe file to install the Fedora Media Writer tool. Just keep on hitting next.
Once installed, run the Fedora Media Writer tool. But before that, make sure that you have plugged in the USB.
It will give you the option to install various editions of Fedora. For desktops, go with Workstation.
On the next screen, you’ll get the option to create live USB. When you hit that button, it starts downloading the ISO. It will also recognize your inserted USB key.
You need to have a good speed internet connection to download the 2 GB of ISO in a comfortable time span.
After downloading the ISO, it checks the download automatically and then gives you the option to write the ISO image to the USB disk, i.e. create the live USB. Hit the “Write to Disk” button.
It will take a couple of minutes to complete the process. It displays “Finished” message and you can close the Fedora Media Writer tool now.
Good! So now you have the Fedora live USB ready with you. Time to use it for installing Fedora with Windows.
Step 4: Boot from live USB and install Fedora
Some systems do not allow you to boot from live USB with secure boot. If that’s the case with you, please disable secure boot.
At the screen that shows the logo of your system manufacturer, press the F2 or F10 or F12 key. You may try pressing all of them one by one if you are not sure of the key. But be quick when you do that otherwise it will boot into the operating system.
This key is different for different brand of computers. Some may even use Esc or Del keys for this purpose.
In some rare cases, you may have to access the UEFI boot settings from within Windows.
In the BIOS settings, normally, you should see a screen like this. Here, you use the arrow keys to move down to USB option and press enter to boot from the USB. Please note that the screen may look different in different systems.
If things go right, you should see a screen like below. Go with the first option “Start Fedora Workstation”:
After some seconds, you should boot into the live Fedora session and see the option to try or install it. Go with “Install to Hard Drive”.
It will ask to choose the language of choice for the installation process.
The next screen is important. If you had created the free space in the step 2, you should be able to hit on the “Begin Installation”. If you see an exclamation mark on the disk icon under System, click on it and see what kind of disk configuration you can use here.
If you have more than one disk, you can choose which disk to use for Fedora.
Select the disk and click on Done. You may see a warning message now. In my case, I did not create free space in the step 2 and hence it complained that there is not enough free space to install Fedora.
I clicked on reclaim space and shrank the Windows partition here.
After this, the “Begin Installation” option appeared to start the installation.
Now it’s just a waiting game. It will take a few minutes to extract files and install them.
When the process completes, you’ll see the “Finish Installation” button. Hit it.
You’ll be back to Fedora live session. Click the top right corner to bring down the menu and select Restart.
When the system starts now, you should see the Grub bootloader screen with option to boot into Fedora and Windows.
Step 5: Complete Fedora setup
You are almost there. Did you notice that Fedora didn’t ask you to enter username and password? Many distributions like Ubuntu ask you to create an admin user during the installation itself. On the other hand, Fedora gives you this option when you log in to the installed system for the first time.
When you first log in, it runs a setup and creation of user and password is part of this initial setup.
Once you do that, you are ready to enjoy Fedora Linux.
That’s it. You can enjoy Fedora Linux and Windows in dual boot mode on the same system.
If you have any questions or if you are facing any issues while following this tutorial, please let me know in the comment system.
Dual booting is the practice of installing multiple operating systems on the same PC. It’s a popular and convenient way of running multiple operating systems such as Linux and Windows on the same host without having to opt for virtualization which does not provide a bare-metal experience which sometimes would be necessary.
In this tutorial, we will walk you through the process of having a dual-boot setup of Windows 10 and the latest Fedora. At the time of writing this guide, Fedora 38 is the latest version.
Prerequisites
For this guide, you need to have the following:
- Windows 10 is installed on your PC, which will be the primary OS on which we will create a partition for installing Fedora.
- A fast and stable internet connection for downloading the Fedora ISO image.
- At least 8GB USB drive to be used as an installation medium.
Create a Free Space On Your Hard Drive
With Windows 10 as the primary OS, you need to reserve a partition on which you will install Fedora 38. To achieve this, first, launch the disk management utility by pressing the ‘Windows logo Key + R‘. Next, type ‘diskmgmt.msc‘ and hit ENTER.
This opens the ‘Disk Management‘ console that displays the current disk partitions on the Windows system.
Next, we will create a reserved partition for Fedora 38. To do this, we will need to identify a volume and shrink some space. To demonstrate this, we will shrink some space on Volume E and create a new partition.
Therefore, we right-click on ‘New Volume E‘ and select ‘Shrink space‘.
Next, specify the amount of space to shrink which will be the size of the partition reserved for installing Fedora 38. In our case, we have specified 54678MB which is approximately 54GB.
Next, click ‘Shrink‘.
Below is our reserved partition which now appears as an unallocated partition.
Create a Bootable USB Drive of Fedora in Windows
The second step is to make a live USB medium for Fedora. First, download the latest Fedora ISO file from the official Fedora download page.
Once you have downloaded the ISO image, use a tool like Rufus or Balena Etcher to make the USB drive bootable.
Also, check out the following useful tools to make a bootable USB drive from an ISO image.
Next, plug in the USB medium to your PC and reboot. Be sure to configure the BIOS settings and set the USB installation media to have the highest boot priority so that the system can boot from it.
Start the Installation of Fedora
Once the system reboots, the GRUB bootloader will appear on your screen as shown. The first option is selected by default. So hit ENTER to begin the installation.
Shortly afterward, the Fedora 38 welcome screen will be displayed. Click the ‘Install Fedora’ button to begin the installation.
Next, select your preferred installation language and click ‘Continue’.
Moving on, the next step is to configure the partition table on your hard drive. So, click ‘Installation Destination’.
The PC hard drive is displayed Under ‘Device selection‘ with the amount of free space available for the installation. This should correspond to the reserved space created earlier in Windows. In our case, we have 53.4GB free of space.
By default, the automatic partitioning scheme is selected. We will go with this which places all the partitions under the root filesystem (/).
Next, click ‘Done’.
Once done, click the button to commence the installation of Fedora 38.
The installation will begin and will take some time depending on the state of your hard drive. In our case, this took roughly 15 minutes.
Once the installation is complete, click ‘Finish Installation’.
Be sure to reboot the system, and upon system reboot, you will see the Windows 10 entry on the GRUB menu as shown.
We will select the first option to finish setting up Fedora. Once Fedora starts up, click ‘Start Setup’ to continue setting it up.
Decide whether to turn location services and automatic problem reporting on or off and hit ‘Next’.
Next, click ‘Enable Third-Party Repositories’ if you want to have the benefit of having third-party repositories enabled by default. Then click ‘Next’.
Choose whether to add any of your online accounts. You can skip this step if you wish to connect to them later. In this case, we will click ‘Skip’.
Next, type in your full name and username to create a regular login user. Then click ‘Next’.
Be sure to also provide the user’s password. Then click ‘Next’.
Finally, click ‘Start Using Fedora Linux’ to finish the Setup.
Conclusion
This wraps up our guide on the installation of a dual boot setup of Fedora 38 and Windows 10. Your feedback and comments are welcome.
So, you run Windows and it does everything you need to do. But you’re done with relying on something so limited and corporate. But you aren’t ready to fully switch to Linux yet. There may be some application or game that you want to keep running. But the time is now to move your primary workflow to Linux. So, let’s dual boot the worst, with the best (in my opinion).
Please backup all important data before continuing!
We highly recommend doing this on two different drives instead of just one, however this guide still does cover it on one drive. If you are using one drive, not that Windows may not play well on Linux and has been known to do things like wiping Linux partitions during updates. Also before you do anything, we highly recommend backing up your data. Also below is a video guide that will go though everything step-by-step with additional detail.
Configuring Windows
Before starting this whole process, we are first going to want to turn off fast startup in Windows to prevent it loading in the Windows Kernel from your hard drive to increase boot save (it’s like a mix between a regular shutdown and Hibernation). This however can cause instability on a dual boot.
To turn it off, head over to Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Power Options and than System Settings, and disable Fast Startup.
Partitioning Windows
With that, the next thing on the docket is to give Fedora a place to install. If you are dual booting with more than one drive, skip this section. Otherwise, to do this, first open the Disk management app in Windows, and you should see a screen that looks something like this:
Next, we are going to figure out which drive we want to resize. It is most likely going to be Disk 0, but make sure to double check if you have multiple drives. Next up, we are going to right click the C drive (or whatever drive Windows is on) and we are going to shrink the partition to make room for a Linux partition. To do that right click you’re C: partition and go to shrink volume.
Now enter the amount of space you want to give Linux (in MB) into the “Enter the amount of space to shrink in MB”. Make sure to not shrink it to have less than what Windows is currently using, and make sure that Windows has atleast some free space left (maybe 30-40GB or so) to give Windows some leeway after the dual boot. Do note that 1000 MB is equal to 1 GB.
Now to apply the changes click on Shrink. But VERY IMPORTANT: BEFORE DOING ANYTHING TO YOUR DRIVES DO MAKE SURE TO BACKUP.
Creating a Fedora USB
Now we need to burn Fedora onto a USB. Make sure that you’re USB has atleast 4 GBs of space. My recommended tool for flashing Fedora is Rufus so make sure to download that, along with a Fedora ISO. Open up Rufus, select the USB you want to put Fedora on, select the Fedora ISO for boot selection, set partition scheme to MBR and target system to BIOS or UEFI. You can set Volume label to whatever you want, set File system to Large FAT32, and set the cluster size to 32 kilobytes.
Before flashing Fedora onto the USB, DO NOTE THAT THIS WILL WIPE EVERYTHING ON THE USB. However, now click start (and select ISO mode if it asks). And we’re good to go once it flashes.
Jumping into the BIOS
Next thing we need to do is enter the bios settings. Doing this is a different process depending on who the OEM of your machine/motherboard is, but generally you will want to spam a certain key while booting (Usually a function key, or something like DELETE or INSERT). Every bios is different, so different options may be in different spots, but the things we need to change should be in somewhat similar spots. The first thing we need to do is disable Secure Boot. For me this is in the security tab, and you disable it by heading over to it and pressing enter.
Do note that Secure Boot is a security feature and disabling it may leave your system vulnerable, and it is possible to install Fedora with Secure Boot. However, this process may not work out because it’s hardware dependent and there’s certificates involved. Also Secure Boot may prevent the system from booting if you run a custom kernel or mess with Grub.
Now head over to your boot options and change the boot order to prioritize the UEFI partition on your USB over the rest of your drives.
Finally, we can save and exit the bios settings.
After this your system should boot off the Fedora USB and we can continue with the installation.
Installing
Once on the Fedora USB, boot the installer, and select “Installation Destination”
Next up select the disk you would like to install Linux onto, and then click done on the top right. This will automatically detect the free space on your disk and install Fedora into it. If you want to double check, you can set the storage configuration to “Custom” and when you click done, it will prompt for partitioning, in which case you can just click on “Click here to create them automatically”. Than you can see what changes Fedora is making to you’re drive.
Also note if you are dual booting with 2 drives and you select a drive that is already filled with another OS partition, it may ask you to reclaim space. Other than that, from here, you can begin the installation and it will take 3-10 minutes roughly depending on your hardware. AGAIN, WE CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, BACKUP YOUR FILES BEFORE CONTINUING.
Now we have successfully installed Fedora alongside Windows on our system. However before enjoying the system, there is an extra optional but highly recommended extra step to increase system stability. We will be doing this within Fedora, so do not boot back into Windows again just yet.
Fixing Clock Issues
When you boot into Fedora for the first time, it will prompt you through a first time setup guide. Just go through all these steps real quick.
Once you run through the quick setup, open up a terminal and run the following command:
timedatectl set-local-rtc 1 --adjust-system-clock
What this does is set the real time clock to use “localtime” instead of UTC. The reason we need to do this is because out of the box Windows uses localtime for managing the system time and Linux uses UTC. So not changing this will result in the time becoming out of sync whenever you switch between the two operating systems.
Changing Windows to be primary
If you would like to make Windows the primary operating system instead of Fedora, we can do this with by installing Grub Customizer and modifying the grub config to allow Grub Customizer to edit Grub. You can do this with the following commands:
sudo sed -i 's/GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true/GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=false/g' /etc/default/grub
sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg
sudo dnf install -y grub-customizerThe first command disables BLSCFG, the second command updates the grub configuration to apply the changes, and the third command installs Grub Customizer.
Now open up Grub Customizer and just select Windows Boot Manager and move it up to the top. (Note if the icon to move an entry up is missing, it is the 5th button on the toolbar from both the left and the right)
Grub Customizer also allows you to modify the appearance of grub under “Appearance settings”, and also allows you to change how long to keep the grub screen up and set kernel parameters under “General settings” if you would like to.
Testing Windows
Now, the last thing we are going to do is reboot and boot into Windows just to make sure that we didn’t destroy our Windows installation. If so than the dual boot has been successful and you can now enjoy your dual-boot system.
This tutorial will guide you on how to install Fedora 32 Workstation in dual boot with Microsoft Windows 10 Operating System pre-installed on a BIOS firmware machine.
If your computer has no pre-installed operating system and you plan to install Fedora Linux in dual-boot with a Microsoft operating system, you should first install Windows on your machine before installing Fedora Linux.
However, try to disable Fast Boot and Secure Boot options in UEFI firmware based machines if you plan to install Fedora in dual boot with Windows.
Also, if Windows installation was performed in UEFI mode (not in Legacy Mode or CSM – Compatibility Support Module), Fedora installation should also be performed in UEFI mode.
The installation procedure of Fedora Linux alongside a Microsoft Windows 10 OS requires no special configurations to be made in BIOS-based motherboards, except maybe changing the BIOS boot order.
The only requirement is, you must allocate a free space on the disk with at least 20 GB in size in order to use it later as a partition for Fedora installation.
Requirements
- Download Fedora 38 Workstation ISO Image
- Download Fedora 38 Server ISO Image
Preparing Windows Machine for Dual-Boot for Fedora
Open your windows Disk Management utility and right-click on C: partition and select Shrink Volume in order to resize the partition for Fedora installation.
Give at least 20000 MB (20GB) depending on the size of C: partition and hit Shrink to start partition resize as shown below.
After resizing partition, you will see a new unallocated space on the hard drive. Leave it as default and reboot the system in order to proceed with the Fedora installation.
Install Fedora 32 with Windows Dual-Boot
1. On the first step, download the Fedora DVD ISO image and burn it to a DVD disk or create a bootable USB flash drive using the Fedora Media Writer tool or other utility.
To create a bootable Fedora USB drive compatible with installation performed in UEFI mode, use Rufus utility or Etcher. Also, check out 10 useful tools to make a bootable USB drive from an ISO image.
Place Fedora bootable media into your machine appropriate drive, restart the machine and instruct the BIOS or UEFI firmware to boot from DVD/USB bootable media.
2. On the first installation screen, select Install Fedora Workstation Live 32 and press [enter] key to continue.
3. After the installer loads the Fedora Live system, click on Install to Hard Drive option in order to start the installation process.
4. On the next screen, select the language that will be used during the installation process and hit on the Continue button.
5. The next screen will present you Fedora Installation Summary menu. First, click on the Keyboard menu, choose your system keyboard layout, and hit on the top Done button to complete this step and go back to the main menu, as illustrated in the below images.
6. Next, click on the Installation Destination menu, check your machine hard disk and select the Advanced Custom (Blivet-GUI) option to configure the storage. Again, hit on the Done button to enter the Blivet GUI Partitioning program.
7. In this step, select the free space that resulted after shrinking the Windows partition will be used for installing Fedora Workstation. Select the free space and hit on the + button to create a new partition
8. On partition settings window, enter the size of the partition, select a file system type, such as the robust ext4 file system to format the partition, add a label for this partition and use /(root) as the mount point of this partition.
When you finish hit the OK button to apply the new configuration. Use the same procedure to create the swap partition or other partitions for your system. In this tutorial, we’ll create and install Fedora on a single partition mounted in /(root) tree and we’ll configure no swap space.
9. After you’ve created the partitions, review the partition table and press the top Done button twice to confirm configuration and hit on Accept Changes button from the pop-up Summary of Changes window to apply storage partition configurations and return to the main menu.
10. To start the installation process, just hit on the Begin Installation button, as illustrated in the following image.
11. After the installation completes, eject Fedora installation media and reboot the machine.
Fedora 32 Post Installation
12. After the system boots up, follow the Fedora post-installation instructions as shown.
12. Allow applications to determine your location.
13. Connect online accounts to access your email accounts, contacts, documents, photos and more.
14. Next, add the name of a new user and set up a strong password for the new account.
15. Finally, your Fedora system is ready to use.
16. After reboot, you will be directed to the GRUB menu, where for 5 seconds you can choose what operating system you want the machine to boot from Fedora or Windows.
Sometimes, in cases of dual-booting Linux-Windows in UEFI firmware machines, the GRUB menu is not always displayed after reboot. If that’s your case, boot the machine in to Windows 10, open a Command prompt with elevated privileges and execute the following command in order to restore the GRUB menu.
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\fedora\shim.efi
17. Log in to Fedora Desktop with the account and open a Terminal console and update the fedora system by issuing the below command.
$ sudo dnf update
18. In case you want to access a Windows partition under Linux, open Disks utility, select the Windows NTFS partition, and hit on mount button (the button with a triangle sign).
19. To browse the mounted Microsoft Windows partition, open Files -> Other Locations and double-click on NTFS partition Volume to open the NTFS partition.
Congratulations! You’ve successfully installed the latest version of Fedora 32 Workstation in dual-boot with Windows 10. Reboot the machine and select Windows from the GRUB menu in order to switch the operating system back to Windows 10.
