#DUAL BOOT UBUNTU WINDOWS 10 INSTALL#

Can I install Windows and Ubuntu on the same partition?.That’s when I needed to think about the dual boot windows 10 and ubuntu, meaning install the Ubuntu along with side windows on the same machine. But what if I want to perform some heavier task? Which can only be achieved on a windows physical host than a guest VM. The first option was to try installing Ubuntu on my machine and virtualize windows 10 as KVM in it, which worked fine on my previous project. Hence, I decided to use Ubuntu and windows together, what are the options did I have? Since I also love windows and I had a lot of files on my windows box, I didn’t want to give up on the windows machines either. How am I using GNS3 on my Ubuntu as a remote server? I covered that article here.Īnyways, I decided to make a switch, in the beginning, I thought let me format the whole system and start using my machine as an Ubuntu workstation. Since I am a network engineer, I use many POC labs before I deploy them in production and GNS3 works best for that. However, from my experience, to get better performance, I realized that it is better to use GNS3 on a Ubuntu KVM box instead of virtualizing them on VMware workstation hypervisor., which again runs on top of the windows operating system.įor those who don’t know what GNS3 is, GNS3 is a network simulation software that lets you create the virtual network and topologies. I was using GNS3 with a VMware workstation. It was going well until I decided to use GNS3 on my windows machine. I used to virtualize Ubuntu on a VMware workstation. I used one of my windows machines as my main operating system, as I also needed Ubuntu. Ubuntu is one of my favorite Linux distros, but I love windows 10 as well.
