One of the most common configuration requirements for a new Fedora Linux installation involves reducing the size of the pre-existing Windows partition on the disk drive and using the resulting space to install Fedora Linux. This so called "dual boot" configuration allows the user to have both operating systems installed on the disk drive with the option to boot one or the other when the system is powered on. Performing this type of installation was covered in the [[Installing Fedora Linux on a Windows System (Dual booting)]] chapter of this book.
