                Using a Windows installation in a virtual machine in Linux
              
          
    Introduction:

This guide shows how to virtualize and dual boot the same OS. My host OS is linux (Manjaro, which is based on Arch) and my guest OS is Windows 10.
Configuration:


Manjaro installed on my SSD, in linux it appears as the primary drive (/dev/sda).
Windows is installed on a partition on secondary hard disk (/dev/sdb as linux calls it).
Virtualization enabled in BIOS.

Installation:

We need a few packages to get started. Here is the command for Arch based distros with pacman.
