Yes, Windows 8 was pre-installed, but Acording to disk management the drive is MBR. Something I have noticed is that if I am in windows, the ML partition shows as a primary partition within disk management but shows as an extended  partition in diskpart...and also disk management shows the following : Any idea of how I could try and get this done from within windows perhaps?

7. reboot
in steep 6 put your disk and partition "(i.e disk0s2 "), see your

Ok, still at stage 2 it says 'disk already unmounted' guess that doesnt matter..

At stage6 it still says ' dd: boot1h No such file or directory'

Where was I supposed to copy the file 'boot1h' to? I copied it to the USB key..Am I supposed to copy it to somewhere on the Mountain Lion partition?

Please help

Hi again Ifire.

Not sure If I was supposed to install chameleon prior to your steps, I guessed so, so I installed it.

Followed your steps.

I got to step 4 and it said ' disk0s2 was already unmounted'

on step 5 I type 'cd/' and it says ' -bash: cd/: no such file or directory

I jumped to step 6 and it says 'dd: boot1h No such file or directory'

Please help :)
