Okay I just installed Mac on my second partition but I'm having trouble booting it.

 

I'm using the windows boot loader method. I copied chain0 file from the phenix image and pasted it in C:\

 

Here is my boot.ini:

[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
C:\chain0="Mac OS x86"

Okay so when I boot, it goes to the Darwin boot loader in which I have two options. If I select to boot my second partition (Mac OS X), it doesn't work and I'll just have to reset. If I select to boot my first partition, it goes to the windows boot loader in which I have to select which partition to boot again. So I select the Mac OS X partition but it just goes back to the Darwin bootloader where I select either one of the two options again.

 

How do i fix this?????

Okay I concluded that Darwin bootloader is the one that decides which OS to boot since I booted mac in vmware using the Darwin bootloader.

 

When I use Darwin bootloader natively, it goes hanging. I tried platform=X86PC but the same thing happens.

 

What can be the problem???
