I asked some people on here and they were like it locked them out of windows 10 once. so just to be safe i would gladly use an external boot drive, and about partitions? do they need to be in specific order in order to work for a bootable drive purpose?

Idk, if you correctly configured everything, dual booting should be just as effective as having two separate drives. The order of partitions does not matter for functionality. Usually people just start with / and go from there. Swap isn't really needed but you can make one if you want.

can we make two partitions for linux? just incase if I wanted to change another window or something?

P.s I just noted we have the same signature. *highfive* lol

What do you mean by changing another window?

And that's very strange! Didn't even notice it.
