welcome in this video I'm going to go over the procedure to install Windows and then
Ubuntu 20.04 on an Intel NUC so this machine does currently dual boot but I have two SSDs
in it and I want to switch it down to one so it'll just run both systems off one SSD
because I need the other SSD for something so I'll put it link in the description to
my playlists for the Intel NUC and for Windows 10 and I'm not going to cover absolutely everything
here but I'm going to go through the procedure of getting the systems installed I have other
videos on installing the drivers for the Intel NUC and things like that and then some tweaks
you want to do after you do dual boot for the clock and to do a default boot system
so you can find those in my playlist below I'll also put a link to some of the hardware
I'm using on Amazon if use that link it helps me a little bit it doesn't cost you anything
extra so I have my web browser up here on three different sites you'll need to visit
first and the first is Rufus and this creates bootable USB drives the next is Windows ISO
download so you want to go to Microsoft and download the tool to download the ISO files
and then you want to go to Ubuntu and download Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and another thing to mention
before you get started is this is destructive so this will wipe everything out on your drive
and sometimes it's hard to do and you don't get it right and kind of screw things up I
don't think it will brick your system but you may have to like tweak settings to get
it working again so if this is your only computer this is probably a bad idea this would be
on a second computer you want to setup and you want to make sure you have everything
backed up everything off of it I'm using two USB thumb drives I have a Samsung BAR and
a SanDisk Extreme Pro you could in theory install Windows and then create the installer
for Ubuntu after that but I'm just going to do both installers at the same time so I'll
close this I'll go to my downloads folder and the have Rufus here I'll double click
on it I'll say yes so under devices here we have SanDisk 32 gigabyte and then we have
this Samsung BAR 128 gigabyte I tend to prefer the smaller drives over the larger ones because
sometimes the larger ones may not work I don't know it's hard to say but I tested this and
it's working so I'm going to use it so I'll do this one for the windows image I'll go
to boot selection I'll click select over to the right here so I'm in my downloads folder
and I'll choose the win ISO I'll hit OK I'll hit open for image option at a standard Windows
installation partition scheme is GPT the other would be MBR and then target system is UEFI
I'll click on this Advanced Options you can look and see what I have there then we have
format options we have volume label file system is NTFS cluster size is 4096 I'll show you
Advanced Options here you can see what I have labeled the first two are checked and then
we want to go to start this says it will destroy all the data I'll say ok and now this is creating
the bootable flash drive ok so it says you just created a media that
uses the UEFI NTFS boot loader please remember that to boot this media you must disable secure
boot ok so I'll hit close so I'll close out of here and I'll reopen it this way I get
the defaults so I have devices SanDisk I'll select the Ubuntu ISO this time I'll head
open so for a partition scheme here I'll say GPT and UEFI and we have format options we
have Ubuntu and fat32 I'll hit start it's asking if I want to write it in ISO mode or
DD mode so I'll choose ISO mode I'll hit OK it's going to destroy everything on the disk
I'll hit OK ok that's finished I can hit close I'll close this out so now I'm going to shut
it down I'm going to take out the second hard drive and then I'll boot it back up into the
BIOS settings and we'll change some of those and then we'll boot from the windows installer
ok so I turn the power on and I'm pressing f2 to go to the BIOS different systems are
going to have different keys you're going to need to push ok so that took quite a while
to come up I don't know why but what I want to do next is hit f9 to load the defaults
this says current settings will be lost to continue loading defaults and I'll hit yes
next I'll click on advanced I'll click on boot and we want UEFI boot and and then we
want legacy boot disabled then I'll go to secure boot make sure that's not enabled and
then I'll go to boot configuration and I'll say USB devices first I may turn this off
later then I'll click the close button I'll say Save Changes I'll hit yes so I could hit
f10 now to go to the boot menu ok so now we have the Windows installer booted you want
to choose your language and currency so I'm using these defaults here because this is
where I live but if you're in a different country you can change those I'll hit next
I'll click install now ok it's asking me to activate Windows and I don't have a product
key I bought it through the Microsoft Store so I'll log back in and get it activated up
using that so I'll say don't have a product key and I want to do Windows 10 home I'll
hit next I'll accept the license terms I'll hit next I'll do custom so here I want to
delete all these partitions so now I have about 233 gigabytes so I'll select this and
I'll hit new I'll type in a hundred and sixteen thousand that's approximately half I'll hit
apply it says to ensure all windows features work correctly windows might create additional
partitions for system files I'll hit OK so now we still have 120 gigabytes of unallocated
space I'll hit next now it's copying the windows files okay so now we're back at the windows
installer screen so I'm going to turn the power off and then I'll boot holding down
f10 so I can choose the SSD okay so now we're at the boot screen I'll choose the SSD I'll
hit enter
okay it's asking me to select my region that's correct I'll hit yes it's asking about the
keyboard layout that's correct for me I'll hit yes go I want to add a second layout I'll
say skip okay it wants me to sign in with Microsoft okay it wants me to create a pin
so I'll click create pin and I'm going to include letters and symbols and I'll hit OK
so this says do more across devices with activity history and I'm going to choose no now so
it says get instant access to your androids phone photos text notifications and more I'm
going to say do it later and now it says backup your files with onedrive I'll say save files
to this PC so now it's asking if I want a free trial of Microsoft 365 I'll say no thank
you this is get help from your digital assistant I'll say decline and this is my favorite screen
you can turn all this off if you want which I like to turn it all off there's a lot of
privacy stuff and I may turn something on later but for right now I like it all off
so that's everything I'll hit accept okay so we're booted up it says restart required
says your PC needs to be restarted to finish setting up this device at the LPC controller
so I may need to install some drivers and things for Intel NUC but this is the base
install of Windows and like I said I have my playlist down below where you can look
up those other videos so it looks like it just figured out the display driver so I'm
going to restart now and I'll insert the Ubuntu flash drive ok so we have the Ubuntu installer
up and before I could hit anything and start booting so it's checking the disks ok so we're
at the welcome screen I can try Ubuntu or install Ubuntu all install has keyboard layout
I'll hit continue I'll say normal installation and I'm not going to download updates at this
time I want this to go a little quicker I'll hit continue so it says installation type
says this computer currently has Windows boot manager on it what would you like to do and
I'll say install a boot alongside Windows boot manager I'll hit install now this doesn't
seem to give you a lot of options as to where you're installing it but it seems to know
that the open partition is partition five so I'll hit continue here it's asking me where
I'm at it's Chicago good continue that's for my time zone I'm not in Chicago what's my
name ricknuc password I'll hit continue okay it says installation is complete you
need to restart the computer to use your new installation so I'll hit restart now and then
I'll pull out the thumb drive just as it's restarting okay so here we're at the new boot
screen it says Ubuntu and Windows boot manager I'll hit go on Ubuntu and I have a video I
made where I show how to make it so it defaults to the last one so if you're in Ubuntu and
restart it will go back to a bun too if you're in Windows and restart I'll go back to Windows
throw out the login screen and we have this connect online accounts thing I'll skip that
I'll skip life patch I don't want to send info I'll hit next I'll leave location services
off I'll hit next and it says you're ready to go you can use software to install apps
like these and it's loading the list it's interesting how both systems installs were
very similar it asks about location privacy things like that I'm gonna click done here
I don't care about that right now so now I have the cool Ubuntu 20.04 Panther with like
the laser eyes so the one thing I shouldn't have done is had at boot from the USB Drive
by default the best thing is to hit f10 and then choose the boot device I don't know what
I was thinking okay so one final thing is I'll go back into the BIOS I'll hit logout
and I'll hit f2 when it reboots I'll click on advanced I'll click on boot I'll click
on boot configuration I'll click off boot USB devices first I'll click on secure boot
and I'll turn that on so I'll hit f10 to save and exit so now I'm at the boot screen I'll
hit Ubuntu I'm at the login screen for Ubuntu I'll go up here to power off power off I'll
hit restart ok I'm at the boot screen again I'll choose Windows boot manager and now we
have Windows booted up there we go so that's all for this video if you have any questions
