Win7 down hard disk installation Linux mint17 dual system coexistence

Because of the need for learning, previously installed VM VMs in the Win7 system, and installed the Linux Redhat in the virtual machine, but after a period of use to find in the virtual machine open Linux is in trouble, and switch to Win7 under the Win7 system is also slow to run, So simply uninstall the VM, directly on the PC with dual system. Started to find a lot of tutorials online, but those tutorials are not particularly clear, for my rookie level of ITER, it really took a while to figure out and successfully installed Win7 and Linux Mint 17, it is undoubtedly found that Mint 17 is now the most popular Linux system, After understanding the feeling is really good, so it is loaded, this article is based on the Mint 17 Win7, Linux dual system installation tutorial.

All right! The origin of the matter also said a lot of, estimated that the reader is also quick to throw bricks, below we get to the point.

The steps are as follows:

1. Right-click "Computer"--"manage"--"Disk Management", delete the last disk (remember to transfer the important files first), calculate the storage space that you want Linux to occupy, and then create a new partition, size is the size of the deleted disk partition minus the amount of space that Linux will occupy and format " FAT32 ", the size of this disk should not exceed 32GB, otherwise it cannot be formatted. Download mint17 (the author installs 64-bit) from the official website and place it in the newly created partition.

2. In Baidu Search and download the latest version of EASYBCD, installed on the Win7, install EASYBCD all the way to click the default next, the software to install play dual system can be uninstalled. After installation, open as follows:

3. Click "Add New enty"--"Neogrub"-"Istall", then click on "Configure" appears, the screen will appear a text box, add the following code after the text box and Save:

Title Install Linux Mint

Root (Hd0,x)

Kernel (hd0,x)/vmlinuz boot=casper iso-scan/filename=/linuxmint17. ISO LOCALE=ZH_CN. UTF-8

INITRD (hd0,x)/initrd.lz

4. Note that the "X" above is the partition number of the disk, at this time on the PC right-click "Computer"-"management"-"Disk Management", to see that the logical partition of the hard disk starts from that partition, such as the image file is saved in the first logical partition, "X" is changed to 4, and so on. Also note that the above code in the blue "linuxmint17" is the file name of the image file you downloaded, must be consistent with the file name of the image you downloaded, otherwise it is busy. Last but not least, the red ". ISO" in the code must be added, even if you do not have the image file name (this is the real pit).

5. Restart the computer, select Linux Mint to boot, enter the Mint installation screen, click Terminal, enter: sudo umount-l/isodevice and press ENTER, double click the desktop icon to install Linux Mint 17.

6. After the system is installed, reboot, choose to enter Win7, open EasyBCD, "Add New Entry"--"Linux/bsd"--"add Entry",

The name in "name" can be arbitrary, the "drive" drop-down menu is selected just to install the Linux root directory and save.

7. It is now possible to clear files such as Linux images, and format the disk as "NTFS", and uninstall EASYBCD.

Finish!
