In this video I am installing Linux Mint into a VM, because YouTube suggested me to make a video talking about "how to install Linux into Windows" or "how to install Linux on Windows". Personally I have switched to Linux after some time experimenting with it in VMs. So I do think that this endeavour is effective for those who would like to get a hands-on experience with Linux.

Enjoy the Video!
