Is there any easy way to simultaneously use duel boot. AKA if I had linux running for a server/media thing on one comp and windows for gaming could it be done?
by this I mean without VMs(Or the ones I've tried.). Could they both share the system resources entirely. I would think there could be software solution to this.. Something that can actively load windows and linux and let me distribute live the resources like ram etc while they are running and open and close them/load them at will. Virtual machine doesn't allow full use of the system. Something more low level would be cool. Is there anything floating out there that does this?
It would by hyptothetically cool to run split screen and or multi screen. AKA go between mulitiple monitors, split screen, PIP at will. 8p Basically and OS for OSes!
actively partition the ram like an HDD or whatever is useful and run them in an environment of their own. Dedicate a port here and a port there for video or other resources etc etc. 8) It would seem to me a logical conclusion at this point. And infact well late in potential. Especially for smaller older OSes. Could have been done long ago on single cpus if the software was small enough.
Edit: I would think this could be done hypothetically. Just have it be the main OS and load up with the basic ability to call OSes like the start up process can. Hell simulate it. At that point you have a much more powerful version for options. Just need security I would guess. Sticking with a linux model would work I would think. A layering for your layering. 8)
