, there should be space on your drive, but noty much left after install!

I have run Linux OS before on my old laptop.Originally Posted by Sisaroth
If you have never tried Linux before i suggest running it in VMPlayer or VirtualBox first. Much less trouble than dual boot and if you don't like it then it's easily uninstalled.
For "What is a good Software Engineering/Computer Science's program?" we need some more details. If you just want to program then i suggest Eclipse.![]()
I'm not sure what kind of stuff you install, but there should be loads of space free on a 64GB SSD on even the "full fat" distros like Mint and Ubuntu.
They're virtualisation solutions. Google them.
He's not after an example program, he's asking you for more details about what you want since your question was impossibly vague. Even now, you've not said what languages you're thinking of learning - which would have a direct impact on the IDE you use to develop in.
VMPlayer and VirtualBox let you run virtual machines.
Sorry i meant next to a full fat windows build! (Should have been clearer sorry), as for tools eclipse is good, Geany is good for just typing away as well
DO NOT do dual boot.Originally Posted by Ryou-kun
Okay, I want to install a latest Linux OS on my PC to make it a dual boot.
I want to use it for Software Engineering/Computer Science and also do you guys know what is a good Software Engineering/Computer Science's program for Linux?
Also, how much does Linux OS will take place in the storage?
I mean, I don't know if I can install both Linux OS and Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit on my same SSD.
I own a Sandisk 64GB SSD that is meant for OS only, but I don't know if I can have a second OS without taking a huge storage. I have about 27 GB out of 58.6 GB.
