Hello,

I am preparing a gift for my partner’s two brothers. They are in their single digits, still don’t know how to read, and are mainly going to be using this computer for minecraft.

I have an old computer I got back in 2014 that has a pretty decent graphics card. Nvidia GeForce 650 or 750 or something like that. I want to put a Linux distro on it that will be easy to set up, and easy for them to use to play minecraft and possibly some steam games. I use Manjaro and have been using Linux for a while but I’m not super adept, beyond general comfort with the command line.

So, what’s my best bet to get it set up easy and quick for these two that they can play minecraft with some mods possibly and other older, less graphically intensive games I have available?

Thanks. Hope you are all well!

    Why do you need dualboot for different DE? A display manager should suffice.

      I basically dualboot to keep my work and personal OS separate, with a shared drive between them so I can still seed 24/7.

      It might not be the best solution, but it works great
