How can I have the same ssh key for dual boot (ssh-keygen)

[Jan de Haan]

Hi Kevin,

  2 possible solutions:

1) put the same private key (id_rsa, not id_rsa.pub) on a shared medium
(usb stick comes to mind) and use that, by mounting it on ~/.ssh, or such.
2) copy the same private key to both environments.

Sincerely,

Jan.
