Root [Verizon] Dual booting

Interesting . . . Haven`t heard of anyone doing this or if it`s possible. I imagine that some sort of boot manager installed on the phone`s memory would be required, to pull up a boot menu at startup, to list a choice of installed roms. Probably would also require seperate partitions, & some sort of partition manager also. Interesting.

Its possible and I know what to do. I just wanted to know how other people felt about the experience
 
I like the idea. What do you plan to do . . . Dual boot between 2 or more different roms ? Very interesting. If you do this sucessfully, I would really like to se a guide on this.
 
At the beginning of the guide it says that it will work on Galaxy s3 I9300 models. Do you know if it will work on the I535`s ? Very cool to be able to dual boot. If you do it sucessfully, let us know !
 
Based on what it says all you have to have is a rooted S3 and doesn't mention anything about being carrier specific so you should be fine, although I don't know but plan on trying soon and will let you know
 
Reading thru that link and also the Siyah kernel info, and I could be wrong, but it looks like its for the international version of the S3 that has the exynos proecessor.
Ours has the Arm something processor.

Just be careful what you flash. I did not see anything specific towards the Verizon S3:)

I know I tried and it failed, but after rebooting I did not seem to have suffered any consequences but I will wait to to see if there aren't any problems from this venture. I also appreciate your comment and warning, it is really good to have this type community where you can come and get help.:)
