Would this kind of setup allow me to have the ubuntu server active while i also have windows active? that way i could install docker on ubuntu server, run the containers i already have and hopefully get hardware acceleration to work. is this doable? apologies if this is a noob question lol, im new to ubuntu and shared os's.You could have multiple drives installed on a system (each with a different OS installed) and choose to boot with a specific drive upon each restart. However, you can't boot up multiple at once. A "system" (motherboard + cpu + ram) can only handle one OS at a time.
thanks in advance!!
If you want to use both at the same time, you'll basically need two full systems to run both.
The closest you'll get to something like this is by using Virtual Machines or something similar to VMs. That's how you're able to use Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) within Windows itself. You can see more about this here: https://canonical-ubuntu-wsl.readthedocs...en/latest/
If you have an NVIDIA GPU, you could try this for WSL: https://canonical-ubuntu-wsl.readthedocs.../gpu-cuda/
