installation Windows and the Linux Dual System Considerations

Installing dual systems for Windows and Linux is a good idea to install the Windows system first and then install the Linux system.

If you want to install multi-boot, it's most like installing a Windows system and installing Linux.

The main reasons are as follows:

• 1. Linux in the installation, you can choose to install the boot manager in the MBR or separate slot of the boot sector, and the Linux loader can be manually set menu, so you can add the Linux boot loader inside the Windows boot option.

• 2.Windows when installed, its installation will actively cover the MBR and its own partition slot of the boot sector, you do not have the opportunity to choose, and he did not let us choose the function of the menu.

Therefore, if you install Linux in the installation of Windows, then the MBR of the boot manager will only have Windows options, and there will be no Linux project (because the original MBR in the Linux boot management program will be overwritten). Do you need to re-follow Linux once? Of course not, you just use all kinds of methods to deal with the contents of the MBR. For example, the full Chinese Spfdisk (http://spfdisk.sourceforge.net/) software to install the number of Windows/linux management program, can also use the Linux rescue mode to save the MBR.
