Re: Linux and Win8: Fast Startup puts data at risk

Just to clarify, this is nothing NEW... anyone who dual booted, after hibernating windows (or - wait for it - OSX), and then dual booted the machine to linux, and mounted the file system of the hibernating OS in Linux, and wrote to it... will royally hose the hibernating OS since it's not expecting the disk to change under it while it's "gone". This, as they say, is pretty freaking obvious.

Solution: Don't hibernate if dual booting and mounting the partition in both OSes. Yes, you can disable fast boot and hibernate in win8. A child (or a linux admin) could do it.

Now if they could just teach a Windows admin to do it
