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.

Dual Boot or Within the system? (lemmy.zip)

I used Manjaro Linux on my first pc back in 2019 for a short time.

I'll be having my second pc in a few days and I was hoping to shift to Zorin OS permanently.

But, due to an unavoidable reason, I have to use 2 of Adobe softwares. Especially Illustrator and Photoshop. Both version 2021.

Will these 2 be almost perfectly usable in Zorin OS or should I Dual boot windows 11 alongside to use them?

it does the "same thing" but it's the low-iq unga-bunga-caveman option which requires less configuration. Meaning you don't get a boot menu to choose the os on boot.

if you want to be extra careful, just remove the ssd of the first os when installing the other on it's ssd & insert back when done. then just in bios/uefi switch which storage device to boot from.
