OS is really not making them money anymore. One thing that helped apple make a comeback was intel hosts and encouraging dualbooting and software to run your windows on mac.
It wasn't published September 29th, it was updated then.
It was published back in March. All these pages are on github where this can be verified: https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/linux/commits/main/docs/install.md
The performance speed between WSL, virtual machines, and bare metal Linux has become so close that few developers choose this method due to the overhead of needing to restart (reboot) your device any time you want to switch between the operating systems.
And there's the attempt at discouraging you from going bare-metal.
I doubt that "few developers choose this" is true.
Actually, the guide doesn't mention how to dual boot, it's how to install Linux bare metal as the only os.
Otherwise they wouldn't have removed the possibility to easily boot Linux from the windows boot manager instead of grub
not impressed, wanna see how to single boot linux and put windows in virtual machine as a guest
I've heard talks that after each Windows update, you have to restore Grub config.
Not the case with me. Had dual boot for some time and never had to fix it... 🤷
I think people misspeak, windows puts the windows bootloader first after some updates
Pretty sure this means Linus won.
Quietly. Lmao. There headlines.
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
