Yep. And depending on the firmware, good chance it means toggling "Legacy
enable/disable " (or sometimes UEFI enabled/disabled) everytime he wants to
switch OS's.

Some firmware have an NVRAM option for this. 'efibootmgr -v' will reveal it
if supported, and the way to use it is with '--bootnext <num>' flag. It's a
one time boot.
