# Dual-Booting Arch with Windows 10
|
|
|
|
This will depict the methods I used dual[tri]-boot my linux install with windows 10
|
|
|
|
## My Partition Scheme
|
|
|
|
My Partitions are as followed (sda being what the hard-drive is referred to by fdisk -l)
|
|
|
|
sda [300 GB (I plan to upgrade to 1 TB soon)]:
|
|
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
- sda1 (my EFI partition) [500 MB]
|
|
* This is where my grub .efi files are located for use by my bootloader
|
|
|
|
- sda2 (My Arch-linux install location) [20 GB]
|
|
* This is where my root "/" partition is located for my linux install
|
|
|
|
- sda3 ("/home" directory) [150 GB]
|
|
* This is the home directory of my arch-linux install.
|
|
|
|
- sda4 (Ubuntu install) [30 GB]
|
|
* Shares sda3 as a home directory with Arch
|
|
|
|
- sda5 (my Windows 10 install) [30 GB]
|
|
|
|
- sda6 (extra storage for windows) [70 GB]
|
|
* will Probably merge this with the windows install at a later date.
|
|

|
|
## Configuring the Grub bootloader
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
### Adding it to Grub
|
|
After installing Windows 10 I booted back into Arch and used the package update-grub to automatically detect the ".efi" files for each install and configure grub to
|
|
add it to the list of bootable OS's.
|
|
|
|
### Setting Arch as my Default
|
|
I downloaded the "grub-customizer" package to push Arch to the top of the list, so I didn't have to hurry and sellect it every time I boot up my PC.
