I was wanting to make a computer that had the option to dual boot, but making it as simple as possible. My idea was to have two hard drives (ex: A and B), with an OS on each drive. In the BIOS, I would want priority to be A and then B. To simplify choosing which OS, I want to wire in a switch that will cut off power to drive A, letting the OS on drive B boot. Thus, the user will be able to select which OS to boot from before the computer is powered on. Will this work, or will it be damaging drive A?
