On the other hand, Noobs is easy to install and able to boot again dual/triple or more system, but you have to connect a keyboard&mouse as it’s not supporting during boot selection. That means you are able to select which system to boot with your TV Remote, however after extensive testing i’ve found Berryboot is quite slow due using it’s own filesystem format. For example Berryboot is able to dual boot with CEC enabled TV’s. However both has advantages and disadvantages against each other. There are a few alternates for doing such a system like Noobs and BerryBoot. I was searching for a device that can handle both Retro Gaming and Entertainment System (XBMC) systems together.
