I want a dual boot Windows/Linux system, which will be handled by GRUB. I'm almost never in front of the PC when it's booting, so it's quite useless to leave a time-out selection screen. I also want Linux to be the default choice. The Linux distro I'm going with is quite light, so it can probably boot in just a few seconds, no problem, to it's login screen.
So, I want the choice to boot into Windows be on the login screen of Linux. How do I make this option available? I know GRUB still resides to the File System, so maybe I can customize the login screen to allow me to set the GRUB options to temporarily boot to Windows (meaning it'll go back to defaulting to Linux after trying to boot to Windows once).
Has this already been done?
temporarily boot to Windows
possible. Very interesting question though!
