By formatting the hard drive.
You will need all your average computer hardware such as a CPU, Hard drive, media card and etc. The most important thing to remember is to purchase all parts with Linux support, meaning the parts are compatible with Linux OS. Then you just connect all the contents and run the OS and install everything.
Have a look at WUBI (search Google) to install Ubuntu as a file, without making any changes to your Windows 8 hard-drive. To remove WUBI, simply use Windows utility to uninstall programs. Or, create a separate partition on the Windows hard-drive and install Linux (or which ever distro you wish to use) on to the new partition. Remember to first backup important files onto an external storage device. Or, download and burn a Linux distribution with an ISO extension onto a CD and use as a Live Disk. If you then intend to install Linux, you will be given the choice to either install as a dual-boot with Windows by installing Linux alongside Windows, or wiping Windows and letting Linux use all the hard-drive.
Linux is just an OS (Operating system like macOS, android, Windows...). But the different things are that Linux is a bit hard to learn. Linux is used by hackers (Linux is a "hacking machine", a bit like hacking in movies. And yes u can play games on Linux (There is some games that doesn't support Linux.)
How many can you put in your computer? Linux can support massive servers with hundreds of hard drives. I believe the mainline kernel supports up to 702 hard drives, although patches are available for up to 3904 disks. You're far more likely to run into hardware limitations than you will with how Linux handles hard drives.
LBA Linux is 1.) "Linux Business Alliance" -- a version of Linux out of Finland, formerly known as SOT Linux. Sot merged with another "flavor" to become "LBA Linux" 2.) lba -- initials used for "logical block address", something to do with formatting and using a hard drive.
Link Counts In linux there are basically two types 1.soft links 2.hard links
No.
That is the "swap partition." It is a dedicated space on the hard disk that fulfills the "swap" feature of virtual memory in Linux.
That would be pretty hard considering Linux didn't even exist until 1991.
with linux you dont have toworriesabout you cp slowing down or malware or viraseus but if you a hard core gammer windows 7 is better and most programs or applications are not compatble with linux
Yes. To achieve this, you need to shrink the window partition so there is space for the Linux partition on the disk.
