Dualboot with Windows 8 and openSuse 12.2 possible?
Nov 1st 2012, 08:07

Hallo, together,

I´ve posted this question also in the german forum, but did not get an answer so far. This is why I post it here again.

I have a new Laptop "Acer Aspire V3" with Windows 8. I know - from the Internet - that there are difficulties, if you would like to install a dualboot with another OS.
Nevertheless: Does anybody have any experiences with this?

What I found out so far:
In my BIOS it is possible to switch off the UEFI. Then there is "Legacy BIOS".
Windows 8 does not start anymore. After turning it on, Win 8 starts again.
It is not possible to turn off the "Secureboot".

Could this be a way to install openSuse with Win 8?

By the way: Is it possible to do a Dualboot with Windows 7? (Until now I only did this with XP.)
