I give this advice out all the time.

It's good for sanity

Do people mistake their storage drive for their OS drive often?

I don’t get it

Company computer went down. Got IT in, and they formatted my data drive instead of my boot drive. Wtf? Could have done the work myself. Instead lost months worth of work

Windows likes to install things in the other drivers regardless of where you choose to install it. When you are one bug away from losing everything, you take no chances.

Yes... but... the tip of the tongue on a 9V battery. Only dd can teach permanent humbleness 😂

We are looking for an investor who can loan our holding company 237,000 US dollars. With this money, we will open a farm in Baku, Azerbaijan to produce animal-based food. We will also make our own animal feed, so our products will be healthier, better quality, and cheaper. Because we sell quality products for less and have strong advertising, we will sell more worldwide and make big profits. Why Azerbaijan? Because animal farming makes a lot of money there, but few people do it. That’s why we will earn more by starting in Azerbaijan. Additionally, by producing our own animal feed, we will be able to sell healthier, higher quality animal products at a lower price. Since we can sell quality products cheaply and thanks to our strong advertising network, we will be able to sell more internationally and make huge profits. The reason for establishing the business in Azerbaijan is that animal husbandry is a very profitable business in Azerbaijan, but since there are very few people doing animal husbandry, establishing the farm in Azerbaijan will provide us with more income. Your profit: You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars. Your earnings will be great. When 22.03.2026 comes, you will get your money back as 953.00 US dollars. You will lend 237,000 US dollars to our holding company and when 22.03.2026 comes, you will receive your money back as 953,000 US dollars. When 22.03.2026 comes, I will give you back your money in the amount of 953,000 US dollars. That means you will earn 716,000 US dollars profit in just 9 months.

Oh dang, I had no idea

or use bootloader from old install on another drive!

A lesson I learned the hard way. My son will know the truth 🫡😆 View quoted note →

Lol. I'm just like ... FTW .. and my grub menu looks as long and intimidating as Santa's naughty list, because why not have a zillion OS boot options on one computer?

when you install an OS, make sure it is not windows
