Hello,

I have to install Windows 8.1 so that Dell technician can troubleshoot my 
system. I have not installed Windows in years, so, I wanted to confirm the 
process before destroying my system.

I will create a 50GB partition for Windows 8.1. I installed Fedora with 
automatic partitioning. As a result, home partition which I will resize is in 
middle. Is it okay to resize the partition in the middle to install Windows?

$ lsblk
NAME        MAJ:MIN RM   SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
nvme0n1     259:0    0 238.5G  0 disk 
├─nvme0n1p1 259:1    0   200M  0 part /boot/efi
├─nvme0n1p2 259:2    0     1G  0 part /boot
├─nvme0n1p3 259:3    0 197.3G  0 part /home
├─nvme0n1p4 259:4    0    20G  0 part [SWAP]
└─nvme0n1p5 259:5    0    20G  0 part /

Once I have installed Windows, it will probably overwrite Grub and possibly 
UEFI entries. Do I simply have to reinstall the Grub for Fedora to start 
detecting it as a second OS.
 
grub2-install /dev/nvme0n1
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg

Do I have the process correctly understood?
