First off, there is so much wonky and esoteric hardware out there today that setting up dual booting with Windows is more hit or miss than ever. Second, Linux Lite is unique in that it probably has more brand new users who have never used Linux before. I think a very cautionary tone (BIG BOLD RED) needs to be taken about dual boot installation instructions with Windows systems, and there should be post installation (READ ME) instructions regarding Windows quirks, and how to use Windows when dual booting with Linux. Should be added somewhere as well a caution against dual booting altogether (DUAL BOOTING IS NOT RECOMMENDED) especially if you are using Linux for the first time and there are other safer options like virtualization. The actual truth is that dual booting on the same disk with existing Windows systems offers more disadvantages than advantages for anyone wanting to use both systems or work cross platform. We're talking about new Linux users here who may have many valued personal files on their Windows box.
