I’ve been wanting to install Linux, but I don’t have a drive large enough to back up my windows installation.

    Do you really need the entire installation? Would only the user folder(s) (C:\Users) suffice?

    Alternatively, you could install Linux mint on a large enough USB stick and run it off there, if you don't mind the longer read/write times. You'd also need to change the boot order for it too.
