Can I install Windows when a full encrypted Ubuntu disk is installed?

Question

I am running a full-disk encrypted Ubuntu 12.10.

Can I install Windows alongside, adding it at the boot menu on this machine? If so, how?

Answer 1

Yes, encryption (LUKS) does not affect the ability to boot Windows as :

1. The boot partition is not encrypted.

2. The ability to boot windows is set in GRUB.

Are you having difficulty or just asking ?

FWIW: if you are installing Windows second, you will need to restore grub after installing windows. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
