Maybe there is some software other than WoeUSB-ng that installs the Windows installation media with GPT partitioning? Or is there a way I can create a small 15gb partition just for the Windows installation media, install it there, format the rest of the disk as GPT and then boot into the installation media to install Windows on another partition?Īvoid using this kind of installation medium creators, especially in this case, since often they do unnecessary stuff and make the whole drive occupied. So I go back to Linux mint and use the Disks gui to format the HDD as GPT, but reinstalling the Windows installation media using WoeUSB-ng converts it back to MBR. "the disk is formatted as MBR and Windows can only be installed on a GPT partitioned disk" Once on there, I see the HDD as one of the disk options, however Windows tells me that: Rebooting my system and entering the BIOS shows UEFI_NTFS as a bootable partition, and booting into it loads the Windows installation media. 1.0 MB W95 FAT16 (LBA) partition named "UEFI_NTFS".1.0 TB NTFS/exFAT/HPFS partition named "NTFS".I used WoeUSB-ng to install the Windows installation media from the ISO to the HDD, and doing that leaves the HDD with 3 partitions, as I see it on the Disks gui: Linux Mint is installed on the SSD, and I've downloaded the Windows ISO file in my /home directory. The machine is an ASUS laptop and it has 2 disks, an SSD and a 1TB HDD. I know I can just use a pen drive but that will take a bit of time and I am impatient, so is there any way I can install Windows on my HDD without a pen drive?
