the difficult moment is when my Linux fail to boot (usually after installing update), it just hang with no message. that is why i make my computer dual boot, one is for backup and access internet for help when i encounter boot failure.

I had no success with dual booting, whether that is because I run a laptop with SSD. Even if I partition the drive to separate the operating system, Ubuntu just doesn't seem to see the other op sys and have had issue boot fail due to swap drive issues.

Ideally, I believe it would only be benificial if I had at least one other computer to fall back on. The pi is a horrible option cause I mainly Ssh or use VCU viewer to access. Again that's through my main computer. Anyway, just thinking out loud, maybe once I finish my next project, I'll check it out again with Arch instead.
