Wait, what? NOOOO! That is exactly what I don't want :-(
Do you know how to change that so that I get the menu no matter which OS instance shut down or hibernated last?
To put more simply what Carlos explained, hibernation as a practical matter is incompatible with multiboot.
Yes. There is an override somewhere (I would have to search for it, so long ago I have forgotten), but one has to be aware of the danger before using it. One can not mount any partition simultaneously on both systems. If one needs to share partitions, one has to umount that partition before hibernation. It is safer to virtualize one of the systems instead. I did that once. Destroyed some partitions beyond repair. It was so nasty that I have never repeated it. The comments on the setting said it was dangerous but not why, IIRC. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
