The City of Glasgow ChorusDec 7

We had great fun getting in the Christmas spirit at Queens St station in Glasgow earlier this week, entertaining some appreciative passengers! Always good to get some extra rehearsals in ahead of our concert on Sunday 21st December at 3 pm in the slightly more familiar venue of the Glasgow Royal Concert Hall!

Wow. So in a spectacular act of epic mistiming on my part I choose to migrate instances just as my chosen new instance goes down for maintenance. Ha. I could not have timed it more badly than this. See, this is why I procrastinate.
Ah well *sigh*

How about that. My archive of posts here from 2022 was only 418 MB.
Christ on a slice of toast they need to make moving instances and your posts better than this. It's OK but only if you assume everybody here is technically minded.

@raymierussell @bobthomson70 It is a pain if you are not used to partitioning or partition resizing (man you should see my old laptop with around 12 partitions..What a faff). Ubuntu used to do a versionl that installed within windows (now defunct).Not ideal but was a good easy to grasp start for beginners.

@wlukewindsor Thanks. Been putting this off like forever so fingers crossed.

@bobthomson70 if they then want to trying it then you''ll need to create space for a spare partition (you can do this from the live usb install) so you retain windows and have a dual boot option so not throwing the baby out with the bath water.

If ever there was a right place to ask this question: what’s the easiest way to help a person off of Windows on their laptop to Linux Mint? Like is there a nice bootable USB image they can have a mess around with and still use their Windows drive? So they can be happy to backup, nuke windows and install Mint.

@emsquared I think you might have tips here ?
