That is, User 1 won't be able to see, read or write to User 2 area. Just note that M1 systems only run Big Sur, nothing earlier.īut why not just use one version of the OS and create two separate accounts? System security will keep the data from one away from the other. I found this guide, is it reliable? How to dual-boot Mac: run two versions of macOS Even if the performance of the current Air M1 are incredible This solution will cost me a lot for sure, I think I'll go for a MacBook Pro.

Full disk encryption as mentioned above, no exchange of data.

The backup on iCloud would be messed up ot does it take the computer name? Or hostname? I need to make sure do not mess up both backups on the cloud. I would wipe out the OS as it comes to me, no point of risking something on the day one, any problem that I can face here? I don't want to have an older version of MacOS, I wanna have the same latest version on both partitions, for what I understood, I can install it from the recovery In any case, the usage would be development and other things, I won't be using it for obvious risky things like torrents etc. I think it's safe enough to have the partitions separated, and they will never mount the other one, which means there is no data exchage between them. I was focused on using the MacMini only for personal stuff, but now I get that I can potentially set up a dual boot with 2 different encrypted MacOS. Hi, I just found the golden solution for fully using my future MacBook, and finally switch to Apple for serious shhhstuff
