On a network having a server, a computer 20 can boot two operating systems. One of the operating systems OS_B is a network server operating system. The default operating system OS_A may be the other operating system. When the default operating system is running, the computer may copy the files from the server's storage area to the storage area of the server operating system. Alternately, the server may copy the files to the storage area of the server operating system. If the server fails, the computer may be rebooted with the server operating system to replace the server. The computer may have two disc drives 24, 26 or two partitions on the same disc, one for each operating system. The computer may require authentication, such as a password, before it will boot the server operating system. |
