Intro#
I have installed a dual system on my small server, with Windows installed first and then Linux Mint, booting through GRUB, defaulting to Linux Mint.
If you have also installed it this way, you can switch systems remotely using the following methods.
Reboot to Linux Mint from any system#
Since GRUB defaults to booting Linux Mint, you can simply restart.
Boot to Windows from Linux Mint#
In my GRUB boot menu, my Windows entry is number 2 (counting from 0 from the top).
So if you want to reboot to Windows, there is a temporary setting to reboot to a specific entry on the next restart, which will then be invalidated on the subsequent restart.
sudo grub-reboot 2
sudo reboot
Reboot from Windows to Windows#
In this case, you need to reboot directly to Linux Mint, then use the above method to reboot to Windows. Although it's a bit cumbersome, since the frequency of this operation is not very high, I think it's a cost-effective solution.
