Today’s video will be an introductory video giving you the proper warnings and risks associated with setting up a computer to boot multiple operating systems. When partitioning out your hard drive to boot from multiple operating systems there is always an inherent risk associated with the resizing of that partition. For those of you who have extremely critical data – you will want to make sure you backup everything that you don’t want to lose before moving forward with the resizing and installation of a second operating system on the same hard drive. This is a fun thing to be able to do and it is more beneficial than running virtual machines because virtual machines share your computer resources with a first operating system.
