## Partition Sheme

| Partition # | Filesystem | Size   | Notes |
|:-----------:|------------|--------|-------|
| 1           | EFI        | 500 MB |This is my bootloader partition for both Windows 10 and Arch
| 2           | ext4       | 100 GB | This is the boot partition for my linux install
| 3           | ext4       | 200 GB | This is the "\home" directory for my linux install
| 4           | NTFS       | 200 GB | This is the boot partition for my Windows 10 install
| 5           | NTFS       | 16 MB  | Not sure what this one is for, Windows made it during installation
| 6           | Fat32      | 30 GB  | This is my "Universal" storage, a partition that functions as a place to store any files that I need/want to move between my installs


## Process

Following a [tutorial][youtube tutorial] to brush up on how to install Arch I:

- Using [fdisk][fdisk] I made a new [GPT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table) partition table and made:
    1. The [EFI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EFI_system_partition) partition for the bootloader

    2. The root ( / ) partition for my linux install

    3. The home partition ( /home ) for the install

    4. An empty [Fat32](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Allocation_Table) partition for my Windows install I planned to do later

    5. Made the "Universal" Partition to use as storage.
