thy1225 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 I'm just curious can we installed bootcamp in OSX86 install windows (vista or XP whatever) and use the boot menu what mac machine has (press "alt" when booting) ? is this possible? and I heard the new beta version of Parallels disktop for Mac can boot the boot camp partition so dose it make us to boot in to the windows we have in boot camp without having to install a new windows virtual machine in mac? just a thought.. does anyone try any part of this yet ?@@ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonz14 Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 No as in not possible, because an osx86 box uses BIOS and a real Mac uses EFI for booting. The EFI is the environment that is needed to run Boot Camp and still has not been cracked to work on PC motherboards. You can find many easy to follow dual-booting guides in the tutorials section if that is what you are interested in. Welcome to the forums.
