   None of that is relevant to booting another OS, though. If Windows expects   
   the hardware to be in a certain state, another OS will not and will   
   reinitialize it from power up.   
      
   Unless that second OS is trying to do its own equivalent “fast boot”,   
   which in its turn assumes that the hardware will be in the same start it   
   last left it. That is likely to lead to sadness.
