I am trying to dual boot Windows 10 with the latest version of Linux Ubuntu but while trying to install it I had some complications. Prior to starting the installing process I had created a 48GB partition on my HDD but I didn't format it so now its empty. Midway through the installation wizard, due to an error message, I found out that I need to create a swap partition, sized two times bigger than the RAM of my system. After creating it using 16GB out of the 48GB, somehow the UEFI boot became involved. I know my Windows 10 uses UEFI boot, and I am confident that the USB stick I am using is booted in UEFI mode as well. From what I've seen so far, I am supposed to create a UEFI boot partition, a main partition and a swap partition. I am extremely confused right now.
What I need most right now is step by step instructions as to how to dual boot Linux Ubuntu with Windows 10 (both in UEFI mode). I currently have an empty, non-formated partition of 48GB intact (I deleted the swap partition). What should I do now?
