If you use that, you don't need to dual boot!

well technically it is a dual boot but you do not need to have 2 different partitions though which makes it a bit different :) it's what i use and it works great

i think that it is way easier to use if you are a beginner but a dual boot is basically the same except it has at least 2 partitions
