Windows 10 install on dual boot 2 drive Windows-Ubuntu setup
I really need some help getting my dual boot Ubuntu - Windows 10 setup working properly.
The issue is a partially corrupted Windows install do to a recent aborted format operation.
I originally partitioned and set up my dual boot over 2 years ago and didn't keep detailed notes.
I can boot into Ubuntu without issue. I normally switch between the 2 OS's by booting into UEFI and selecting the correct drive.
So 2 separate physical drives.
A Samsung 850 EVO 1TB drive is my primary boot drive (Drive 0) that I have partitioned for Ubuntu as follows.
dev/sdb1 esp fat32 10MiB
dev/sdb2 root ext4 40GiB
dev/sdb3 home ext4 650 GiB
dev/sdb4 swap linuxswap 128GiB
unallocated 123 GiB
The drive which should contain my Windows install is a Samsung 950 PRO 512 GB nvme (Drive 1 in the attached image)
I have created a Windows 10 install USB and launched into it.
The problem I am having is that when I select either of the primary partitions on Drive 1 the installer says that it cannot install because of the GPT partitioning scheme on that drive.
I am confused. What do I have to do to reinstall Windows in that drive ?
