QCBean Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Hi everyone, I've read a lot on this forum about how to install osx86. So lately I decided to buy a new hard drive and to try to install everything. Now my question is: I want one HD to have XP on it and the other one to have osx86. How should I put the master/slave configuration? I've got two master sata and two slave sata port on my mobo... Since I want my XP HD to be my primary booting disc, how should I configure everything? So, two HD and one DVD writer.. And is there a way (software) to choose between the two HD at the startup or would I'll have to go in the BIOS everytime I wish to switch OS? I've search on google and on this forum but must of the time i've only found advice on partitioning on HD for 2 OS... If you got a link or something, let me know, maybe I'm just blind... Help will greatly appreciated! Just in case, spec: Intel E6750 P5K mobo last BIOS updated geforce8800gts seagate 500gb Samsung F1 750gb Thx!

vaporATX Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 This has been covered more times than I can count. There's a whole section on dual booting in the wiki with links to like ten different guides.
