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 to brush up on how to install Arch I:

  • Using fdisk I made a new GPT partition table and made:

    1. The EFI partition for the bootloader

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

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

    4. An empty Fat32 partition for my Windows install I planned to do later

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