Purpose of Dual / Multiple Boot
Most of the time, when you purchase a computer system, it only comes with one operating system. For example, it is very common to purchase a computer that only comes with the MicroSoft operating system.
Although this may be true, your computer is designed to provide more than one operating system to work it when you start up the computer. It does not matter which operating system that the computer has, all systems will allow you to run different operating systems (depending on the available memory size of your hard disk drive).
Dual Boot means that the user is provided two operating systems to choose from upon bootup. Multiple-boot means that the user is provided with more then two operating systems to choose from upon bootup.
