I intend to set up dual boot on my surface and got some questions.

I know about the surface kernel and intend to use Mint.

I mainly use it for university stuff.

I assume it makes sense to reset Windows first to clean that up and then install Mint.

Main question is how to best partition the 250gb ssd?

Current idea would be 150gb for windows, 20gb for root, and 80gb for /home.

I know Linux can read Windows files but if I install Wine on the Linux part can I also run programs that are installed on the windows part?

Any other opinions, thoughts or hints would be apreciated.
