To double boot Windows and Linux, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Install Windows: First, install Windows on your computer. Make sure to allocate enough space for Linux during the installation process.

2. Create a bootable USB or DVD: Next, you will need to create a bootable USB or DVD from the ISO file of the Linux distribution you want to install. To do this, you can use a utility such as Rufus (for Windows) or Etcher (for Windows, Mac, and Linux). Follow the instructions provided by the utility to create the bootable USB or DVD.

3. Boot from the USB or DVD: Once you have created the bootable USB or DVD, restart your computer and boot from the USB or DVD by pressing the appropriate key at the boot menu. This key will typically be F12, F2, or Esc, depending on your computer’s BIOS.

4. Install Linux: Once the Linux installation media has booted, you will be presented with the installation wizard. Follow the on-screen instructions to install Linux. This will typically involve selecting your language and time zone, partitioning the hard drive, and configuring the network settings.

5. Finish the installation: Once the installation is complete, you can reboot your computer and you will be presented with a boot menu where you can choose to boot into either Windows or Linux.

It is important to note that the exact steps for installing Linux may vary depending on the specific Linux distribution and the hardware you are using. If you encounter any issues during the installation process, you can refer to the documentation provided with the Linux distribution or seek assistance from the Linux community.
