I use Arch Linux but the steps should be the same in other Linux distributions.
Install texlive-core
sudo pacman -S texlive-core
move the created texmf-dist
sudo mv /usr/share/texmf-dist /usr/share/texmf-distOLD
mount your windows system
with lsblk find your partition and mount sudo mount -t ntfs-3g (your partition) (to a folder)
examaple:
sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/nvme0n1p3 /mnt/win/
without ntfs-3g you mount the Windows partition as Read-Only.
Is there an error start windows and shutdown windows by holding shift key.
Symbolic link the folder
sudo ln -s (your windows temf-dist folder) /usr/share/
example:
sudo ln -s /mnt/win/texlive/2018/texmf-dist/ /usr/share/
change the texmf.cnf file
This file you must change every time you change the operating system
move the windows setting
mv /usr/share/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf /usr/share/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf.win
copy the linux setting
cp /usr/share/texmf-distOLD/web2c/texmf.cnf /usr/share/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf
Finish
Test that it is working
sudo texhash
output:
texhash: Updating /etc/texmf/ls-R...
texhash: Updating /usr/share/texmf-dist/ls-R...
texhash: Updating /var/lib/texmf/ls-R...
texhash: Done.
