Re: [orca-list] Dualbooting Linux and Windows



One word: don't. Your best bet is to run a virtual machine on your Linux host, if you feel you must. You can snapshot the virtual machine at any time so you have something that works to go back to when something inevitably goes wrong, and when the unthinkable but highly likely happens to your virtual machine, you can just destroy it and rebuild it. You may even be able to share files or even devices between the Linux host and the virtual machine, something that is simply not possible when dual booting. Also, Microsoft destroys your bootloader because it wants to be the only rat in your lab, so you need to keep it in a secure cage. Most virtual machine software should be secure enough to cage the Microsoft rat properly.
