This document provides detailed instructions for installing an operating system, specifically for dual-booting Windows and Ubuntu. The process for installing Windows and obtaining a BitLocker recovery key are also included as separate resources.
To dual-boot Windows and Ubuntu, it is recommended to first install Windows and allocate enough free space for the Ubuntu installation. The Ubuntu ISO file should then be downloaded and written to a USB drive using a tool such as Rufus. The computer should be booted from the USB drive to begin the Ubuntu installation process.
For those installing Windows, the process involves creating a bootable USB drive using the Windows Media Creation Tool and then booting the computer from the USB drive to begin the installation process.
In the event of a BitLocker recovery, the recovery key can be obtained through the Microsoft account associated with the device or through a saved recovery key file.
Refer to the linked resources for more detailed instructions on each specific installation process.
