Want to install #PopOS alongside #win11 but I can't find any good guides from the vendor or otherwise. I'd like to get all the nice PopOS features like a restore partition, but it really wants to wipe the whole drive and start from zero.

I am generally in favor of doing this but in this case, I need to retain the exisitng #Windows partition for a few weeks.

Edit: it would probably be easier to install PopOS and then shrink & add a Windows partition, but I want to keep the one I have now (and its corresponding restore partition).

Any leads?

@royal with as cheap as SSDs are right now ... if your computer can accomodate an additional drive, get a cheap drive for $20 to install linux to.
@techaddressed Lack of space isn't the issue.
@royal I didn't suggest it is. But with a 2nd drive, you can temporarily disconnect the other so nobody mucks with each other.
