Does using a virtual machine setup produce the exact same results as dual booting operating systems - ie: you have your operating systems in isolation and data/software all runs and works the same as it would do on an ordinary dual booted way?

It's one of those rare "perfect" kernels. So if it doesn't happen to compile with your config (or it does compile, but then does unspeakable acts of perversion with your pet dachshund), you can rest easy knowing that it's all your own **** fault, and you should just fix your evil ways. - Linus Torvalds in a 2005 message to the Linux kernel mailing list.

nah the Virtual machines dont do as good, dual boots are better and faster and wont take up as much cpu and memory but the plus of a VM is you can use both at once, matter of choice really, i prefer dual boot.
