Once again, I already answered that: the possibility to boot directly my

You never stop being proud of you lack of knowledge. So partitioning a
hard drive is not a lot of work, it's a fast and easy thing to do by
anyone but you. And on a new computer you have to do that anyway. No?
You didn't? It means you keep the partitioning your hard drive came with?
You didn't add a swap partition? And you kept your FAT partition? Yes,
you are a Windows user, it's obvious from a very long time.

For what gain?

To have a computer designed to run Linux instead of Windows would be a
good start.

Nothing.  That's the answer.

Yes, I know, you prefer Windows to Linux. But here I'm speaking about a
computer running Linux, not Windows. And if Linux can read/write on a
FAT partition, it's not the best choice for a Linux installation.

YOU, however, have nothing to be concerned about because your
distro does all the partitioning for you.  All you have to do
is float along like a helpless piece of driftwood.

As you speak only about what you don't know, I'll tell you a secret. I
had to partition my hard drive by myself. As you are afraid of
everything that's recent, I know you can't use gparted to do the job. As
you are afraid of the command line, I know you can't use fdisk either.
But, you could use a usb stick with a live distro on it to use
gnome-disk which could help you using your mouse.

Start improving, don't stay that limited in everything,
including your insults.

You learned only one insult because you can't learn and because you have
no creative capacities.

The single term "idiot" says it all very succinctly.

It's mostly limited.
