How To Creating A Linux Ubuntu

To install Ubuntu Linux alongside Windows, one must first free up hard disk space (100-150GB recommended), create a bootable Ubuntu USB drive using Rufus, and then begin the Ubuntu installation process. This involves selecting "Something else" for the installation type, creating Linux partitions for Root (20GB minimum), Swap (double the RAM size), and Home (remaining free space). Once complete, restarting will load Grub and the new Ubuntu installation.

How To Creating a Linux

Ubuntu
In this article we will see how to install a Linux based OS alongside a Windows OS
already installed on a System.
Before we begin here are some of the Advantages of a Linux OS over a Windows OS
and why you should consider using a Linux System. (Purely based of my experience)
• Linux Systems are generally light on system resources and hence run faster even
on old hardware setups.
• Linux has native support for the gcc compiler and python interpreter.
• Linux also has native support for Git which makes it easier for people to
synchronize their work with remote repositories on GitHub.
• Linux is Open Source and hence tinkering around with its source code can give us
a better understanding of the Structure of an OS.
Prerequisites, before we begin the process:
1. It is recommended that you have 100 – 150 Gb of free Hard Disk space,
although anything above 40 Gb would do the job. (This step is important
as it is the amount of space you will be dedicating to your Linux OS, and
once linux is installed you will not be able to access this space through
Windows)
2. A USB flash drive have a minimum space of 8Gb.
3. (Optional, Only for newer machines) Making sure whether Windows is
installed in UEFI mode or Legacy BIOS Mode.
1. First of all: Unallocating the Required amount of Hard Disk Space.
This step is required to free up some space from your NTFS formatted Hard
Disk. This unallocated space will contain the Linux System Partition and
hence it is necessary for you to decide carefully how much space you will be
devoting to linux.
2. Second Step: Creating a Bootable Linux USB Drive.
We first need to Download the Disc Image File (.iso file) of the Ubuntu OS
from the Official Ubuntu website (www.ubuntu.com).
We also need another software called Rufus for the creation of a Bootable
USB Drive. A Bootable Drive is one from which the machine can load the OS
without installing it.
Then we need to backup all the Contents of the USB flash Drive and Start
Rufus. In Rufus we make the following settings a shown below.
3. Third Step: Installing Ubuntu.
Once you have booted in the live USB, you will be presented with option to
try or install Ubuntu. Click on install. You will be presented with few screen
options to choose the language. It will then do some checks on available
space, power and internet connection etc. Just click on Continue.
4. In addition the main screen which you should pay attention to is Installation Type.
Choose Something else here:

After that remember we had created some free space beforehand? We shall use the free
space to create Root, Swap and Home. Select the free space and click on the + sign
5. Before you install It will provide you with option to create Linux partition.
We are creating the Root partition. Any thing above 20 GB is more than
sufficient for it.
6. Then Clicking on OK in previous step will bring you to the partition screen.
Next we will create swap. Like previously, click on the + sign again. This time
use the file type as Swap area. Suggestible swap size is double of RAM.

In similar fashion, create a Home partition. Allocate it maximum space (in fact
allocate it rest of the free space) because this is where you’ll save music,
pictures and downloaded files.
7. Finally Once the installation is completed, restart the computer, you should
be welcomed by a purple grub screen.

That that was the way to install ubuntu, thank for you attentions
See you then
