I'd greatly appreciate a few pointers. Is anyone running a dual-boot Dell? Is it possible to keep the Dell W10 on a recovery partition; and can the recovery image be used as a basis for a qemu instance? I was thinking of an scratch partition (50G?) just for a W10.qcow functionality or W10 recovery. When the native W10 recovery partition is activated, does it allow a targeted installation to a specified partition, or does it just swallow the entire drive? Can anyone tell that I haven't a clue what I'm talking about? Thanks fraser

* Do you do much gaming as they are often released as Windows only, WINE is not usually up to gaming. * Troubleshooting, especially peripherals. Good to be able to eliminate hardware issues if the same device works in Windows.
