insaneMacAndy Posted August 30, 2010 Share Posted August 30, 2010 For those of us who try to dual boot using the Windows bootloader but encounter errors like "chain booting error" or "HSF partition not found," please try the following method: 1. Install Windows XP on primary partition, copied tboot to C: then edit the boot.ini to C:\tboot="Mac OS X" 2. Install OS X on secondary parition using ToH RC 2 OS x86 DVD 3. Boot into the ToH DVD OS installer (but don't install!), using the Terminal in Utility, type the following commands to make OS X boot from hard drive and not from ToH disk: cd / cd usr cd misc sh script.sh VOLUMENAME (whatever your Mac volume name is) press "y" when it asks you 4. Quit the ToH installer and restart 5. Now at boot up you should be able to choose from either Windows XP or Mac OS X. P.S. You don't need to set any partition to primary, let Windows XP be the primary partition. Tboot actually supports OS X in extended partition. Let me know if this helps. tboot.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
