Hi. Is there a terminal command or option for Boot Camp Assistant to install and partition Windows 7 64-bit to another drive other than the boot drive? On an iMac i7 I'd like to put it on the external drive will would be my Time Machine backup (1.5 GB. Although a 1TB drive for Time Machine would pair well with the iMac's 1TB, the extra .5TB would be safer) and probably install Win 7 partition (200GB) for games in the 1.5TB Time Machine backup drive (which leaves it at 1.3TB). Thanks in advance. Gbu.

You don't even need boot camp assistant; just partition your second drive, and boot from your windows dvd. I did this on my MBP and it worked great. (BTW I replaced my optical drive with a hard drive, hence the two internal drives).
