[OpenIndiana-discuss] Multiboot on PC

[Reginald Beardsley]

 I have a laptop that boots XP, Linux and Solaris. That cost me about a dozen install attempts to make work. Then I never used it as I was able to avoid traveling.

Subsequently I've always simply swapped hard drives when I wanted to switch the OS. I did recently set up to dual boot Windows 7 and Debian 10 for lack of SATA caddies.

I generally recommend against it too, but I've found it's also not very
useful to question OPs' needs/wants ;)
