I have a linux based internet router. It has two partitions, A and
B. Assuming A is running, B is updated or vice versa. After the
update it boots into the updated partiton (e.g. B) and if there is a
startup problem, it switches back to A on the next boot and will not
retry B until after the next update. So a bootloop is not possible
as long as one of A or B is still functioning. This works without
user intervention (so no boot partition selection or something like that).
I don't see how that can be implemented with official Windows (while
there are non official ways to live-boot/net-boot windows, mostly
with some sort of intermediate Linux or based on cloning software or
modifying Microsoft installer USB Sticks).
Nothing official from Microsoft though.
