roon83 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 yup it is possible. I am currently dual booting leopard with XP. Mac is on a 15 GB partition and there are 4 NTFS partitions. Windows partition is primary and Leopard partition is also primary. BTW it's SATAII Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/104461-install-leopard-on-a-partiton/#findComment-743793 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I have to delete the 2:nd partion? (It´s emtpy but formated in NTFS at the moment) So it´s unformated?

TomTom1 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Someone just asked the similar question. Difference is that he install OsX first. Basically either way will work. I use Acronis to switch arround during the installation of different OS. Just set Active the partition you going to install to. And yes, it is as easy as you did in Windows. Hope this help.
