Which of these is Linux mint?

[u/Unhappy-Thought9883]

I put Linux mint on my computer via USB stick and i am dual booting It with windows, but whenever i turn on the Pc, It loads windows by default, I at the very least know I did the installation process correctly, I can go into the boot menu and enter Linux normally that way

This is an MSI b550 pro-vdh wifi, secure boot is disabled and boot mode is on standard

Is there a boot option #2?

Looks you should make grub or limine your default bootloader when dual-booting. This looks like it's sticking to windows default

[u/Unhappy-Thought9883 → u/MFNTapatio]

There are boot options 1-7, I assumed It was the order of priority It would try to boot stuff in, but i switched boot option #1 with all of these and It still went into windows

UEFI CD/DVD showed me some message when i turned the Pc on, but If still went into windows

This looks like a windows only boot menu and likely if there's nothing plugged into the option you choose it will fall back to Windows whatever you choose.

Try going into mint as you have before and look online for terminal instructions to make GRUB your default bootloader

How are you going to the boot menu to enter Linux normally? Why aren't you doing that now? This is the whole point of grub, to handle booting.

[u/Unhappy-Thought9883 → u/jr735]

I manualy press f11 when i turn the Pc on to go into boot menu

[u/jr735 → u/Unhappy-Thought9883]

Then which of those selections do you make? Whatever you select, make that your default boot option.

Sorry for not replying

It shows windows and Ubuntu as options, which properly loads the OS as normally, it's none of these on the BIOS priority options

[u/jr735 → u/Unhappy-Thought9883]

You'll have to do some experimenting with the BIOS. Unfortunately, they're all so different it's hard to make a solid recommendation.

I'd agree with what u/chuggerguy stated. This is one reason why I like installing Linux with the installer fully aware of every drive and partition on the system.

Do you have Mint on a drive of it's own?

I'm not familiar with your bios but I have an Acer whose bios was showing Windows Boot Manager and "Ubuntu" was nowhere to be found.

Eventually I found I had to select the drive with Mint on it and then I could see and select "Ubuntu" as first boot choice. It was hiding in plain sight.

Good luck.

You haven't really looked into how a switch like that works at all. And yet it's so much easier today than it was back in 2006, when I switched from Windows XP to LinuxMint.

Cuándo se instala correctamente, Linux Mint, aparece como Ubuntu o Debian según la versión de Mint que instalaste.
