Windows 8 came pre-installed on my computer and I have heard that getting Linux on it is much harder than previous versions of Windows because of it using something other than a BIOS. I forget what it is called... EUFI or something like that.
I am very technology inclined, but installing operating systems and dual-booting is a completely new concept to me. I mean I've always known what it is, but I've never attempted it myself.
Does anyone have any tips or know of any good tutorials for dual booting Ubuntu with a pre-installed Windows 8? I know that I should create a recovery drive in case anything goes wrong. Here is the method I plan on using: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/create-usb-recovery-drive.
I am completely new to the world of Linux, but I have been doing some research for about a week and I am very interested in trying it.
