Could you build this?
No Rebooting an entire computer into another operating system with one click requires low-level EFI boot manager interaction and OS-specific boot loader manipulation.
What it would actually take: Requires writing native system utilities (in C, C++, or Rust) with root/administrator privileges that directly modify UEFI NVRAM variables (e.g., BootNext via SetFirmwareEnvironmentVariable on Windows or efibootmgr on Linux). It must reliably interact with diverse motherboard firmware implementations, BCD (Boot Configuration Data), and GRUB configs without bricking system bootability.
