andeify Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 Ive got the main kexts on the hidden EFI partition, and my main install a disk. I decided to create a backup install at the end of the disk for the times when I mess up the main install by updating. Its all set up and installed as follows: disk0s1 EFI (with chameleon bootloader, main kexts n {censored}) disk0s2 Mac (my main install 10.6.6) disk0s3 Zac (the new fresh, updated, unbooted install 10.6.6) Now when i get into chameleon and select to boot the backup install (Zac) it loads Mac (the main one). How do I boot it? Can I do it this way or does it need to be on a seperate disk with its own chameleon bootloader? I asked elsewhere in the forum but I dont think its going to get answered because my original question was about updating before first boot which put it in a different catagory. Other Post. Thanks in advance, Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andeify Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 figured it out, yes - but make sure you dont have any boot flags in com.apple.boot.plist that point to a specified disk eg. boot-uuid=******* or rd=diskXsY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
