The principle reason for doing/testing dual boot is to have the
ability to be able to do a remote reinstall for a fresh OS on a remote
box. If you know of a way to accomplish that, I'm more than willing to
hear it!!


Everything I've seen regarding doing reinstalling of OS, requires
having access to the box, with fresh media.

This is really intended to allow me to detect if the "base/master"
system has been hacked, and then to immeadiately switch to the minimal
OS/system, which would then invoke a netinstall for the hacked
system/OS to have a clean system.

     Please excuse me for late to the party(discussion)

I'm not understanding, Are you saying if you suspect your main install is compromise you can simply reboot into the second OS installed on the same computer? if that is case, my opinion is, the second os can also be compromise and forensics analysis of the whole system would need to be done, for example, reconstructing a breach,etc.
