A new VM having a first new disk and a second new disk is created. The method includes creating a first image of a first disk associated with the first VM and a second image of a second disk associated with the second VM, installing the first image into the first new disk and the second image into the second new disk, and configuring the new VM to include a dual boot function enabling boot up of the new VM with either the first OS or the second OS.
