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.

How to replace Windows with Garuda OS (lemmy.ml)

Hello, I am sick and tired of Ubuntu relentlessly pushing snap. I currently am running a Windows Ubuntu Dual Boot and would like to replace the Windows partition with Garuda OS (They are on the same SSD). Eventually I want to move all my files from Ubuntu to Garuda and then delete Ubuntu.

I am not too familiar with messing around with the BIOS. I would like some advice on how exactly to safely do this without accidently bricking my system. Pointers to resources where I can learn how would also be helpful.

I am running Intel i5 with Nvidia 1070 GPU if that helps.

How to replace Windows with Garuda OS

I use Windows for Photoshop, Topaz AI, Office, and some games. -It's not replacing Windows.
