If you get it to import your current os win 10, I’d be interested in how it went. I’ll have to look into that. Didn’t realize it was possibility. Swapping out drives is another easy way to do things too. I kept the side off my system for awhile and would do that when I was trying a bunch of Linux flavors. Had a bunch of old drives I installed various Linux’s to. Didn’t want to mess with dual boot at that point. I finally,settled on mint cinnamon. Been my main os for years now. Still have to go into windows from time to time, so I keep 10 and 11 on separate second drive.

Wish i had gotten into computers at younger age though... so much. To them. I forget probably 80% of things I look up to do like dual booting. My next project I think will be winboat- if I can get that running and run my windows programs inside Linux, that’d be the better option I think.

I will do that. According to a source on Youtube, they said "You have to use Disk2VHD to clone your physical disc to the image. Install Virtualbox in Linux and copy the image, Use VB to convert the VHD to VDI. Then create a new VM and choose "Use an existing Virtual Hard Drive file" from the Hard Disk section."

When I get ambitious again I'll give that a try.
