Two computers work better than dual boot
by etcetera from LinuxQuestions.org on (#50PV7)
I've dual booted, even triple-booted in the past and found out that by and large, the concept doesn't work.
You always need the OS that you are not booted into.
Or you are having issues with one and you need to use the other one. Plus Linux is designed to stay up, or you are doing something that prevents the machine from being shut down.
I stopped fighting and got a second notebook, the identical MSI GT80 Titan I already had. One will run Win10, the other RH8.
Plus if I have a hardware failure, all I have to do is swap the SSD into the working machine so it's nice to have redundancy.
