No gaming, at all, no graphic/video design nor editing. Also no MS Office and stuff. Occasionally I fire up Fusion360 for creating 3D models for 3D printing. Krita and MyPaint for graphic tablet drawing. Illustrator for vector design. That's all my graphical needs ? After reinstalling Win earlier this week, I have 75GB remaining. I do have another 120GB SSD from an old Debian installation that I could format and use. Intel® Core™ i5-2520M (2.5GHz, 3MB L3, 1333MHz FSB) upgraded to 12 GB RAM Windows 10 Home Edition - version 1809 - OS Build 17763.379 ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happywire Posted April 7, 2019 Share Posted April 7, 2019 (edited) @OrganizedFellow Regarding this Do you still need help doing a dual boot? If you don't need Windows natively you can always run it in a VM and hence have access to software that is Windows only. Given you seem to go with Linux, all I can say is, keep it that way. I only have dual boot since I need native access to Windows because I am using Elgato alongside external audio/video recording that is directly fed back to the recording machine. There is no way for me to run Windows in a VM and be able to use that hardware unfortunately, otherwise I would have done so. Mind you, if you still want to go dual boot it is imperative to install Windows first and then Linux (I think). I have Kubuntu running, not sure about how to do it with Debian, though I am sure it is doable. Here is a Debian post on how to get it done: https://wiki.debian.org/WindowsDualBoot Edited April 7, 2019 by happywire added more info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windows was happily removed from my computer. I'm so excited! Ran a fresh install of Debian two nights ago. Couldn't be more thrilled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you will now be able to also turn on or off https or what I do, either just visit the the local project through the http or https protocol. I used Wamp, then XAMPP and now Devilbox, from the things I have done so far, Devilbox has been quite approachable, if you use it for ProcessWire make sure to pick the right containers in the .env file. All the best amigo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of those are needed. Check my signature, I'm running a full LAMP setup ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
