  1. Dual Boot Windows 10 on single SSD with pooled partition


    Hiya folks!I have a Panasonic windows tablet that I’d like to set up like this:2 Windows 10 installs on separate partitions on a single SSD, with access to a 3rd partition for file storage. I’d like each Windows to be able to use the files/data on the 3rd partition as if it’s a pooled source. Neither will be using the pooled partition at the same time. Will this work?Also, will this create 2 C drives, 1 for each Windows install? Thanks

    :)

    Dual boots from a single physical drive

    OK, @churin, the next step is to try to get that second EFI system partition to boot Windows 8 directly. In a command prompt with admin run:
    Code:
    Now, similar to my computer below:

    The last partition in your list should be a 99 or 100 MB system partition, but it will have a different partition number. You want to continue in the same command prompt window with:

    Code:
    Now reboot your computer and see if you can get that EFI system partition (Windows Boot Manager) to boot directly into Windows 8. If you can, we move on to the next steps.

    Dual boots from a single physical drive

    Before doing the In-Place Upgrade thing, it crossed my mind that that might affect what I was doing, but went ahead.

    Is your suggestion on #51 still good for me to move ahead?

    zbook: Looks like I should not mix match suggestions from more than one party. I appreciate it if you would stand by until I finish my troubleshooting following NavyLCDR's suggestions.
