This article describes a very nice tip on how to switch between windows and linux using one command (or click ;) ), I was tired of forgetting to stop grub to select windows and of searching on the internet if someone has already done this, so I’ve created the scripts myself.

Requirement:

  • The scripts require a fully working GRUB installed on MBR of your hard disk.
  • Your boot partition must be either ext2 or ext3.

On Linux::
Download the functions folder as well as the files colors and Go2windows, put all the files in the same folder, now if you do:
$ ./Go2windows
and confirm, your computer should reboot directly on windows.

On Windows:
Download all the contents of this folder also read very carefully this file before doing anything, now once you have installed all the required programs, if you double click Go2Linux, your windows should reboot in about 10 seconds directly into linux.
