>Is it still called dual booting if you have two operating systems on two separate hard drives? So to choose between them you just change the boot order?
Yes
>Because then you've basically got two computers inside one pc case.
No, you''ve got two operating systems on one machine.

>>55862076
No, you dont have "two computers in one case" unless you have two motherboards in there with everything else

>>55862076
your could just have 2 operating systems on 1 hdd. just have different partitions. and a bootloader.

>>55862770
yeah that's what i have at the moment. If you have two on two different hdds do you still need the grub screen

>>55862800
No

Out of curiosity, what would be required to have 2cpu's running different OS's but able to transfer files between one another much like having your mouse go from one screen to another? Rather than sending it via a usb cable.

Check out Synergy. You're looking for something similar.

I mean if you want to be literal, you could have a dual xeon board, with each cpu controlling a virtual machine, and setup a network share. But you could also do that with 1 cpu.

Thanks, It seems to have the foundation work fairly nutted. I'll be able to build on from there.

Link, because its name a common term. (never do that when nameing small projects)

That's what I was thinking, that synergy thing should be good for making it a seamless task.
