Okay /g/, so my current situation is:
>currently running an old HDD with Windows 7 Home (preinstalled shit)
>got a new SSD, currently have both together
>have a Debian boot USB stick ready for emergency cases
>have a Windows 7 Ultimate iso at disposal, but no DVD drive.
I'd like to make the SSD dual boot with Win 7 Ultimate and Debian. What would be the best course of action to do this? I already know that Windows should be installed first because it's a retarded piece of shit, but other than that? Is it true that I should disconnect my HDD before installing Windows on an SSD?

Oh fuck off, that's a stillborn board. Plus with all the Arch memeing going on /g/ I figured that this is the most appropriate place for it anyway.

Yeah but what should I do exactly at the moment? Could I just go
>install W7U on SSD
>make a new ext4 partition
>put Debian on new partition
>set it as the boot drive in BIOS
>wipe HDD
Or will it fuck up somehow? How would the system behave after boot?

Just try installing windows on it first, if that works then just treat it like a regular harddisk and install debian. Will it work? Never tried and don't know

>>52020784
Yeah but supposedly Windows is really stupid (wouldn't be surprised) and will install part of itself (possibly the system reserved partition) onto the HDD if there's one available. At least that's what I heard. Does it work like that? Don't know, and I would like to before it possibly fucks my HDD up.

...so how is it?

Come on /g/
