Hey guys, I was wondering if it's possible to go from the selecting operating screen, after selecting OSX, and automatically boot OSX instead of the Darwin selecting startup screen? Sorry for being a noob. I just didn't know what to search for this. :)

Here is the Darwin startup screen

hd(0,1) Windows NTFS (contain XP)

hd(0,5) Windows NTFS (free partition)

hd(0,6) OSX (contain OSX obviously)

You need to edit the following file:

 

/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

 

Mine looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>Boot Graphics</key>
<string>Yes</string>
<key>Kernel</key>
<string>mach_kernel</string>
<key>Kernel Flags</key>
<string>-v</string> <!If you leave it like this you will see the verbose boot, if you want to continue to see the graphics remove the "-v"> 
<key>Quiet Boot</key>
<string>Yes</string>
</dict>
</plist>

 

Hope this helps you.

 

Best regards,
