[Solved]Install archlinux alongside windows 8.1 [dual-boot]

Hello .
firstly I came from Ubuntu which have a GUI installer  and I'm not familiar with command line , I just know a few commands for terminal I use it for web server like stop start install .etc ..

I want to install archlinux alongside my windows 8.1, I read the installation docs  but I lose myself inside it since it's not written for Dual-boot .

I will be thankful if there's  another docs for dual-boot , P.S : I have a BIOS not UEFI motherboard - Intel Pentium 4  - 2G RAM .

thanks in advance

If you are planning to install and use Arch Linux you should get used to search for information that you need. You must also get familiar and comfortable with the CLI. You should also read through the Code of conduct to get the most out of these forums.

Regarding what you are asking for: A quick google 'archwiki dual boot' search will give you the documentation you need.
