About 1 yr back I installed fedora onto my wife's dell laptop with windows 10 for
dual boot. Despite significant and lengthy efforts to follow online guides to get
windows to free up space I never got that to work - windows never gave up the
space. In the end installed into a spare 2G partition instead.
At work we had a "mission critical" application that was developed on IRIX64 and
ported to linux and macOS, but not Windows. Since Windows was the "enterprise
standard" I've configured many systems for dual boot. That sometimes
required moving files out of the primary Windows partition to a network server or
removable drive to allow shrinking the Windows filesystem. These days, enterprise
Windows used encrypted drives managed by IT. The "mission critical" application
runs in WSL (and users realized that many other applications run faster in WSL
than they do in Windows).
