    The main problem for most people when installing Linux is partitioning. Normies usually only use Windows that has been pre-installed, and never install Windows from scratch.

    I think you should try Linux on a VM first to get used to it.

      The automatic options on Mint make everything extremely easy. Do you want to keep Windows, or get rid of it? How much space do you want to give to Mint and Windows? Okay, done.

      I’m just gonna jump in head first. When I get around to it.
