No simple solution for quickly switching between two operating systems in a dual-boot setup without losing your session
It is called virtual machine.
That comes with a performance loss and probable compatibility issues with certain hardware.
Virtualbox still doesn't support CUDA.
>no actual reason for quickly switching between two operating systems in a dual-boot setup
ftfy
If you want to open Photoshop without going through the buggy clustercuck that is Wine, or running in a Virtual Machine that doesn't support GPU acceleration on your machine.
We both know youre a fucking gamer. So make a pci-e passtrough for your gaymen VM using your meme card and run gentoo on your igpu.
Nah. Especially not for what you're doing. Virtualization is good for enterprise, it's good enough for you.

Good enough? Or it isn't >simple enough?
>doesn't support GPU acceleration
LOL. What do you have a GMA965?
can you explain why you would need this without suffering a minimal loss in performance from a hypervisor? or are you just a little crybaby weiner?
Probably for messing with neural networks, which run slow as shit without CUDA and direct access to the GPU
Then he should build an appropriate machine for it.
How do I even use a hypervisor? Can I use it to run Mac OS with minimal performance loss?
>Mac OS
I need to run some Mac specific programs like Sketch 3 and Adobe Experience Design CC. Thanks.
It's not legal to do so, or at least you have to host the vm in a Mac itself, but:
Have you read this?
kb.vmware.com
looks like you should just jump out of a moving car then instead of complaining
Thanks, I'll check that out. Might end up just borrowing a friend's Mac desu.
In order to virtualize a Mac you first must be the Mac
>what is hibernation
How about using a real hypervisor then ?
GPU passthrough bro
>without going through the buggy clustercuck that is Wine
It's pretty nice IMO and with playonlinux is easy to setup.

There was this shit, but nobody used it.

There are a number of things similar to what you describe, but nobody ever use them because few people want to run two OSs simultaneously.
Unless you're a poorfag, go buy VMware.
>actually wanting to run two kernels in kernel mode at the same time
>implying that they won't just deadlock each other on launch
There is a reason why it's called a dual-boot.
Or you can just stop being an idiot and run a VM like the rest of the world.
Buy a used Mac Mini off eBay and set it up. If you're poor, use a KVM switch.
Why not just fuckin use Windows alone
For the most part you average user has no need for some fancy Linux stuff specifically, unless we are talking low-power/old machines

Those were the days, those were the days.
