Thank you for this video🎉 I’m a newbie here, just want to know if this is a window/Linux dual boot? I’m trying to have both Linux and window, currently using the usb persistent method, but it’s hard to switch between two. virtual machine method didn’t work well for me, so I’m wondering if dual boot is the best way to switch between Linux and window?

Another question, is the file transferring method mentioned in video applicable to usb persistent Linux too?

Thank you so much!

Thanks it is a pretty cool video, I have to do this for a homework and I think I encountered a little issue, when I tried to send files that have spaces in the name they wouldn't get sent. Files names like "this is a file", but files named like "happy.txt" were fine

[aj_art]
