Yes, this is part of why I suggested not using the term "partition" to

Pete,
umm - regarding partition, i was under the impression that an OS
install can have multiple "partitions"
In my case though, I want to have the ability to set/invoke whatever
process needs to occur so I can programatically set the boot OS. All
of this will occur via ssh, so the process won't

Hey Suvayu,
Thanks, but in looking at kickstarter, it doesn't allow as to how
