After having a thought about this issue and also currently looking at a BootEasy boot manager ...

'boot0cfg' is almost perfect for this task and should/could be "exploited".



It's '-o noupdate' already does a major task, of keeping main slice active.

Now all we need is a flag, through which we specify slice to boot (replacing human presing button).

From that point on, existing code simply proceeds with received value.



'-o noupdate' ensures next boot will bring up main/active slice.
