Originally posted by Danny3 View PostIt would be awesome if this can be then used by Linux desktop environments to create a more complex restart menu like:
-Restart into Linux (same distro)
-Restart into Windows (or other operating system)
Or even more complex like my Lineage OS has on my phone
- Restart into System (same operating system)
- Restart into Recovery mode
- Restart into Download mode
I don't know what Recovery and Download mode equivalent for Linux would be, but in any case the "Restart into Windows" for me would be very helpful.

There are two ways to handle bootloader updates:- Name your kernels/initrds/etc. after their version numbers and edit the configuration every time.
- Name your kernel something like /boot/vmlinuz and, whenever you do an upgrade, do something like cp vmlinuz vmlinuz-backup_boot; mv newkernel vmlinuz to change what the existing config points to.

This "mark as spam and then reappear" bypasses the reply notifications, so you would not get notified that I replied to you, and that's why I posted the "unapproved post for Murple", so you know that in a few hours something will appear above it.

Dear GPT partition believers, post tested instructions how to clone a single GPT partition drive to a new drive.
Note how large part of it is to fix a Debian-specific issue that isn't an issue for other distros.
And I can assure you that it 100% works on my OpenSUSE Tumbleweed PCs, as that's what I actually do.
There are none in the Internet, so it is better to use MBR and Grub.

Originally posted by Shiba View PostI just saw this only works with UEFI though, so for me the problem solved itself since I don't have a UEFI PC.
